Phusion Passenger Reviews

Unicorn vs. Puma vs. Passenger: which app server is right for you?
I'm probably stating the obvious, but you can't use a multithreading app server if your app isn't threadsafe. In that case, Puma, Unicorn, and Passenger can all work. For Puma, you'll just limit each worker process to one thread. It then behaves like Unicorn or the open-source Passenger version.

  • Passenger isn't loading my app directory
    Okay so, I tried a few things. I'll do some explaining so we're on the same page, since it's my first project and I don't really know what I'm talking about. I'm following this guide on the phusionpassenger.com website. Source: 11 months ago
