JRuby in Practice
Ruby has made an significant upward trend in the past few years. Alongside this trend Charles Nutter and the fantastic JRuby team have implemented a version of Ruby that runs on the JVM giving you the power of Ruby coupled with the advantages of running on the JVM. Come see for yourself how you can harness the power of rapid development in Ruby and still maintain all the Java interoperability you need to help you build on top of your existing systems.
In this Session you will take a look at some real world examples of how JRuby can help you:
- Write new software that wraps existing Java libraries
- Utilize JMX to monitor your production code
- Increase the effectiveness of your test suites
This session will leave you with new information that can help you decide if JRuby is right for your next application or feature.
