I would like to know a bit more about the architecture behind it.

When 1000 users are coding together some RoR app, how do you guys execute that many behind on your server ? I can understand that file browser and all can be done with HTML5 APIs, but then on execution you have to take the entire app (controllers, models, views, asset pipeline, etc. etc.) on the server execute them, get the output.

Are you guys going to run a lot of web server instances then (maybe 1 per user)?

Would love to know if you got no problem with sharing. Just for knowledge :)

Cheers and good luck with it!




We would definitely write a big blog post on it. Right now I can say we had about 200 users on just a EC2 micro instance. We dint expect lot of traffic and users. and I have to run to do damage control.
