try radiant extension rails support it is made for that purpose. It will  
allow you create a rails application with MVC that you are used to with  
rails along the radiant cms. You could find info about that extension as  
well as an example at

Thanks

I’ve recently also had good success creating widget outputs from my  
other Rails app and then have Radiant consume them via Net::HTTP and  
the backdoor plugin, it’s a hack but may be a pattern I bother making  
a “Widgets” extension to facilitate in the future.
