If I would use EventMachine, how would be the architecture? EventMachine 
receives the messages and forward it to my ruby scripts? But 
EventMachine would replace my TCP server? And with EventMachine it is 
easy to set up a persistent SSL connection?

Okay.

Okay, I could build up an apache webserver with for example phusion 
passenger which enables the ssl security and the persistent connection. 
And then I use Rack to get the requests and I can send the responses
