Depends on the individual application. Namespaces, plugins, and engines
are all possibilities; so is something like the eco_apps gem. But I'd
advise you not to set up the whole big structure at the beginning --
rather, refactor as the application grows. Otherwise you'll wind up
with a small application collapsing under the weight of a
big-application infrastructure.

Best,
