Ruby on rails
Ruby on Rails is an open-source web framework. Ruby is a language, Rails is a framework. Rails is fast becoming a preferred development framework eating into PHP share
Rails is a full-stack framework for developing database-backed web applications according to the Model-View-Control pattern. Rails works with a wealth of web servers and databases. For web server, we recommend Apache or lighttpd, running either FastCGI or SCGI, or Mongrel. For database, you can use MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, Oracle, SQL Server, DB2, or Firebird. Just about any operating system will do, but a ‘nix-based one for deployment is recommend.

No doubt it is faster than comparable Java frameworks, I think its more useful to build interactive web pages using AJAX set of techniques and especially web 2.0 style.

There are different approaches and idioms to learn a new development platform, We learn programming languages on a very academic level and never learn to apply them to specific problems probably because one fine morning that problems will no longer be a problem.

Clients dont need SSH access. You will need to install Ruby on Rails from your end and that will enable the module for your customers.

You can directly install it under /usr/local/src/ or simply proceed with the above mentioned installation guidelines. By default the installation would complete in /usr/local/src/ as it makes no difference where you extract the package.
Installation of Ruby on Rails would apply for the full server so all accounts setup on the server would be able to use Ruby on Rails.
