Overview
This is a repackaged open source software product wherein additional charges apply for technical support with a 24-hour response time. This AMI contains Ruby 3.2 and Rails 8.1 on Amazon Linux 2 repackaged by Easycloud.
Amazon Linux 2 is known for its stability but often lacks modern development libraries. Standard installations of Ruby on AL2 fail to support TLS 1.2/1.3 due to the outdated system OpenSSL 1.0.
We have solved this. This AMI features Ruby 3.2 compiled from source and explicitly linked against OpenSSL 1.1. This ensures full compatibility with modern gems, payment gateways, and APIs that require TLS 1.2+, while retaining the stability of the Amazon Linux 2 kernel.
We uphold the core value of "Redefining open source value through performance and simplicity."
Guided by this commitment, this AMI is professionally repackaged by experienced engineers with a strict focus on Compatibility and Modern Standards.
Why choose this AMI?
-
Solved OpenSSL Dependency: We have handled the complex compilation process of linking Ruby 3.2 against OpenSSL 1.1. This fixes the common "OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError" that plagues standard Ruby installations on Amazon Linux 2
-
Rails 8 Ready: Comes pre-installed with the latest Rails 8.1 framework, allowing you to build modern web applications immediately.
-
Frontend Ready: Includes Node.js 16 (LTS) managed via NVM, ensuring you have the necessary runtime for JavaScript asset compilation and frontend integration.
-
Production Standard: Ruby is installed in /usr/local and symlinked globally, ensuring availability for both interactive users and system services.
Highlights
- OpenSSL 1.1 Patched: Custom-compiled Ruby 3.2 runtime with native OpenSSL 1.1 support, enabling TLS 1.3 on Amazon Linux 2.
- Rails 8.1 Stack: Pre-loaded with the latest Ruby on Rails 8.1 framework and Bundler, ready for rapid application development.
- Node.js Included: Pre-configured with NVM and Node.js 16 to support modern frontend asset pipelines and JavaScript runtimes.
