Ninefold: Ruby on Rails Hosting & App Deployment

With so many hosting providers on the market it’s hard to distinguish one from the another, but the Australian based Ruby on Rails service Ninefold is ahead of the game with their personal touch to improve developer apps and sites.

Luckily we got the opportunity to chat with Peter James, co-founder of Ninefold, director of Australian ISP iiNet, and chairman of telecommunications company Macquarie Telecom.

We spoke with Peter about the benefits of starting a business in Australia, how open source languages help drive growth and freedom to create products, why web performance is becoming a critical aspect in the modern era, and what it was like meeting Sir Tim Berners Lee.
