The Perfect Marriage: Why Rails and Cloud Platforms are a Match Made in Developer Heaven

If Rails was on a dating app, its profile would read: "Mature framework seeking cloud platform for long-term deployment relationship. Must love convention over configuration and hate XML." And guess what? The cloud swiped right! This power couple works together better than pair programming with your rubber duck. The cloud handles all the infrastructure drama while Rails focuses on making your code look good. It's like having a personal assistant for your application – except this one doesn't need coffee breaks. Security updates and patches? The cloud platform has your back faster than you can say "bundle update". It's like having a bodyguard for your application that also knows how to make a mean cup of coffee and crack decent programming jokes. The monitoring tools available in cloud platforms integrate with Rails like they were meant to be together from the start. It's as if DHH himself descended from the Ruby heavens and blessed this union with endless performance graphs and logging capabilities.
