Re: Running Multiple JRuby on Rails Applications using the Glassfish

Hi Brandon,

You can use GlassFish v3 gem for development and then deploy on
GlassFish v2 as a WAR. It might be useful to consider buying support as
well so that your production apps remain live with minimal downtime.

mediacast.sun.com [1] case study provide more details on a similar
deployment architecture.

We were using JRuby 1.0 and mongrel_rails with jcluster (allows for a pack of mongrels serving the JRuby on Rails app). We upgraded to JRuby 1.1 and found that jcluster is now broken, and it appears that it won't be fixed. So we started looking in to Glassfish to serve the apps. We started with the glassfish_rails gem since it is certainly the easiest way to start using glassfish, but, it obviously has the previously mentioned limitations. What would currently be the best way to deploy these two app to our server using Glassfish? We currently have Apache serving everything, and I assume we could set up a Virtual Host to pass all traffic t Glassfish V2/V3?
