I don’t understand your question, then. Compare them for what? Is your goal to deploy [something] on Jets, or to solve a particular business or technical problem with a Web app, or what? If you take a step back and explain your goal(s) one or another of us may be able to help you.

Jets is a "serverless" methodology way to get Ruby into a Lambda (function as a service) world. The idea of these is that you have a single, simple function (validate this credit card, say) and you implement it in a single function that returns an answer in milliseconds. There's a fundamental mis-match between these two goals. Nothing wrong with Rails or the "serverless" idea. They each have different purposes and best uses. Rails is for monolithic applications, serverless is for single-function composable modules of code.
