This product has charges associated with it for technical support with a 24-hour response time. This AMI contains Ruby 3.2 and Rails 8.1 on Amazon Linux 2. It features a custom source-compiled Ruby runtime linked against OpenSSL 1.1, enabling modern TLS 1.3 support on the enterprise-standard Amazon Linux 2 platform.
Overview
This is a repackaged open source software product wherein additional charges apply for technical support with a 24-hour response time. Ruby 3.2 and Rails 8.1, built on a minimal Amazon Linux 2 installation, are included in this AMI, repackaged by Easycloud. It provides a source-compiled Ruby stack with OpenSSL 1.1 linkage and Rails 8.1 pre-installed, deliberately engineered to eliminate the TLS compatibility barriers that plague standard Amazon Linux 2 Ruby deployments.
Core Features & Integrations
-
Amazon Linux 2 Foundation: Provides a highly optimized, cloud-native underlying OS with familiar RPM ecosystem paradigms, ensuring high stability, AWS-native performance, and seamless operational interoperability for users transitioning from RHEL, AlmaLinux, Rocky Linux, and traditional CentOS deployments.
-
Ruby 3.2 (OpenSSL 1.1): Compiled from source and explicitly linked against OpenSSL 1.1, ensuring full compatibility with modern gems, payment gateways, and APIs that require TLS 1.2+, while retaining the stability of the Amazon Linux 2 kernel.
Key Benefits
-
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.
-
Ideal Foundation for Modern Stacks: By starting with a bloat-free Amazon Linux 2, maximum CPU and memory are dedicated entirely to the Ruby interpreter and Rails application server, ensuring fast request handling and low memory overhead for web workloads. This makes it the perfect, conflict-free foundation for full-stack web applications backed by relational stores (PostgreSQL, MySQL), caching and background job layers (Redis), and document databases (MongoDB). It integrates seamlessly with the broader web ecosystem (Python, Django, PHP, Laravel, Node.js, WordPress, Ghost), community and project management platforms in the Rails tradition (Discourse, Redmine, GitLab), and authentication and observability services (Keycloak, Prometheus, Supabase), ensuring your Ruby infrastructure scales without limits.
-
Production Ready & Expert Support: Secured with the latest OS patches. It delivers a highly stable environment, fully supported by comprehensive documentation and fast technical assistance (guaranteed 24-hour response time) to ensure your infrastructure runs smoothly without costly downtime.
Highlights
- Ruby 3.2 and Rails 8.1: Best-practice deployment
- Amazon Linux 2 (Minimal Installation), updated to the latest version.
- Node.js Included: Pre-configured with NVM and Node.js 16 to support modern frontend asset pipelines and JavaScript runtimes.
