Amazon | BBC | Capgemini | BPN | Cisco | CNET | Electronic Arts | IBM | JP Morgan Chase | NASA | Oakley | Oracle | Siemens | ThoughtWorks | Yahoo!Points to note
Companies such as ThoughtWorks and Capgemini have an impressive roster of high profile multi-national corporate clients. Its worth noting that they often choose Ruby (on Rails) over other languages to implement their solutions. So usage is far wider spread than even this list may suggest.
How is this list compiled?
We looked through our database and contacted individuals involved in organisations that we thought to be prominent in nature - a brand, house hold name, large institution and so forth. It's entirely possible we missed some out. That being the case please do get in touch so we can update this page accordingly.
