Tips for Optimizing Rails on Oracle

My article Tips for Optimizing Rails on Oracle has been published on the Oracle Technology Network site! I can’t say how much i liked working on this.

I tried to synthesize in one place all that needs to be known to make the best from the two technologies and explained all of the tips in oracle-specific terms.

Rails on Oracle comes out as a good performer, but my only regret is that i did not have time to investigate (and maybe contribute back to the community) on adding proper bind variables support to ActiveRecord, which would have been the definitive optimization, but I see that the subject is being actively discussed on the core developers ML, so we may get there soon ;)

On the side, for those interested, I made “a Rails “version” of the HR schema that has been modified to directly comply with the common Rail conventions

I hope that what i wrote there makes sense and I’d love to hear what you think!
