- The title of this article should be mod_ruby. The initial letter is capitalized and an underscore is substituted or omitted because of technical restrictions.
mod_ruby is an embedded Ruby interpreter of the Apache web server to allow Ruby code to execute natively, faster than other CGI methods. Its drawback is that the characteristic sharing of classes among Apache processes is not safe for multiple applications (i.e. multiple Ruby on Rails applications running simultaneously).
