You might know me as the guy who created Thin, now running at Heroku, and tinyrb, running nowhere, but still pretty cool.
I'm now offering the opportunity to build a custom server just for you, for doing whatever you please. Optimized, stable, scalable and tested, the real deal.
Need to scale? Your server keeps crashing? Want to add chat to your website? Provide an API for your app? This service is just for you!

We invited Marc to help us improve the performance of a critical piece of API infrastructure that we have been struggling with to scale well. Two days later it went from 10 seconds per requests to 200 requests per seconds. Absolutely amazing work.

I had bunch of questions about implementing EventMachine in one of my projects and Marc-André had an answer for every one. He know’s his stuff and he saved me a lot of time.

What kind of server can you make ?
Web server with custom extensions or optimizations, chat, WebSocket, proxy, API server. I can also make existing servers scale horizontally and help you improve your system architecture.
How fast, stable, secure will it be ?
Depending on your needs, the server will be tested for correctness, performance and robustness using the appropriate tools and technics like fuzzing, stress testing and profiling.
What technologies do you use ?
Comet, EventMachine, Ragel, Rack, RabbitMQ, God and more, depending on your needs and resources.
My server is broken, can you fix ?
This is not a sysadmin service, but I can help you find the root cause of a failure and help fix it. I can also help you monitor your server to prevent future failures and downtime.
How do you work ?
Keeping things agile, I build your server iteratively, optimizing and extending until it fits your needs perfectly. It's all about building the right server for you, making best use of resources you have.
Can you work on my app too ?
I specialize in server technologies but can also offer web development services through my company, Sauté.
