10.7 Moving Ahead
In this chapter, we learned the following:
-
How to create a simple search system using Drip
-
How to use
RBTree
-
How to change the layout of processes flexibly
It’s been a while since we last created a system using dRuby and ERB (access to dRuby is wrapped using the access to my_drip
). dRuby, ERB, Rinda, Drip—each system is simple, and you can start using each one easily.
They may not be the best solutions to handle really big problems, such as handling data that doesn’t fit into the main memory of one machine or handling many clients in real time, but they are best suited to handle your personal data on your machine or your network. I hope these libraries and the thought processes in this book diversify your design options.
