    <p>If all you're looking for is a <a href="http://lbrandy.com/blog/2009/05/the-75-answer/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">75% answer</a>: grails</p> <p>I've done significant development on both platforms, though my major rails experience ended about a year and a half ago (before rails 2.x was released).</p> <p>I've been heavily involved in grails development since grails 0.5.</p> <p>The answer really depends quite a bit more on the developers and infrastructure that will be available to work on the project. If you're looking to deploy to a standard java app container (like Tomcat), I think that Grails is the better choice. If you're looking to do something with mongrel/rack/pound/etc. Pick rails.</p> <p>If there are particular gems/jars that fit your business problem, that would obviously affect your decision.</p> <p>The choice of Grails for me isn't so much because I think that it's better at solving all kinds of problems, but more because I like the grails developer community better and <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/288074/groovy-advantages-over-jython-or-jruby/289269#289269">I like the groovy language a little more</a>.</p> <p>I've also found grails to be an easier sell to the places I've worked at over ruby/rails. There are many more java shops around here and it's less of a leap for them to make that transition.</p> <p>This is a personal preference and I could easily see someone else going the other way.</p> <p>Rails has quite a few things going for it, and I think the test driven development story there is much better (though I'm <a href="http://naleid.com/blog/2009/04/14/grails-build-test-data-01-plugin-released/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">working on trying to fix that</a>).</p>
