Chapter 3 RingyDingy
“A little boat that keeps your DRb service afloat!” That is how developer Eric Hodel describes his RingyDingy gem at http://seattlerb.rubyforge.org/RingyDingy/. In Chapter 2, “Rinda,” we discussed RingServers, including how to build a simple one. RingyDingy aims to make the process of managing a RingServer a little easier and a little less prone to some of the issues that can sometimes occur with RingServers.
