Hi Michael,
As mentioned in the webinar yesterday, Rails applications can be very
easily deployed as WAR files on GlassFish. This allows leveraging your
investment in Java EE infrastructure and still deploy a Rails
application on a standard Java EE application server like GlassFish.
Here is a brief list of Rails applications in production:
http://rubyonrails.org/applications
Twitter, YellowPages, Hulu and Bumper Sticker are some examples.
Just to clarify, Ruby-on-Rails is *not* an Apache module. A Rails
application running on Mongrel may be front-ended with Apache though.
