A content management system provides the foundation for an easy to maintain a website. A key factor in deciding which CMS to use should be the customization factor. When I say customization factor, I mean the how difficult it is to develop custom functionality particular to your project. Some CMS systems make this easy while others present more of a challenge.

A minor phenomenon has swept the Web world in the last few years. Like many things in the realm of software, it was over hyped. I'm talking about the open-source Web development framework called Ruby on Rails. The RoR market is more than ready for anything that gives them visibility into their applications, whether that is on the developer's desktop or the running production application.

Ruby on Rails, also known as RoR, is an open source web programming application framework meant for faster web applications. The Ruby programming is a free program and is constantly improved by Ruby on Rails Programmers to make it more better and user friendly. Ruby on Rails development comes with features such as Model View Controller architecture that separates data from logic i.e. presentation layer and helps in organizing application program. RoR database access library simplifies data handling. Rails framework has an extensive AJAX library which it uses to generate AJAX code and the required Java script is automatically generated.

Benefits of Ruby on Rails include:

1. Rails works well with various web servers and databases as it is really easy to deploy web solutions using Rails.
2. With Ruby on Rails work is done faster otherwise before web applications which were using languages such as PHP, Java, ASP, could take ages to complete and in the end you may just have a large stack of unmentionable codes.
3. Rails provide fast and easy development with quality results.
4. With Ruby programming language you need to write few lines of code in comparison to other programming language to reach the same result.
5. The Ruby on rails framework software also supports MySQL, SQL, SQL Server, DB2 and Oracle.
6. ROR CMS provides very flexible solutions, final output depends on user choice no pre-format is mandatory, image cropping, resizing, multi-language support, excellent usability, sort able tree-based admin interface, layout editor, scaffold template is created.
7. Rails applications are Tailor made to perfection for an individual or an enterprise and best fit for all kind of web application. Rails architecture is used and most preferred for development of cms, e-commerce, portals, collaboration, and community.

The new performance management and profiling tools are important additions to the RoR development community as RoR moves from being a hobbyist development language to a bona fide enterprise development framework. Most of our attention now is moving over to the general rails environment and ecosystem creating tools and environments for development and production so that people can work better with and on their rails applications.
