•••
Small loading time
Since it has very few dependencies, the loading time for a Sinatra app is considerably small.

Hard to scale well
Because it's rather small and minimalistic, scaling up is not very easy with Sinatra. You need a great deal of knowledge on libraries and modules that may be useful for your particular use-case. As your application grows larger it may be hard to keep things clean and minimalistic, losing a lot of the advantages that Sinatra has.

Has only the bare minimum needed
Sinatra has taken an approach of having only the most useful components needed to build applications out of the box. It has simple routes along with a Domain Specific Language over a Rack layer.

Separates concerns
Rack is great at separating the different stages of a request, allowing developers to easily follow separation of concerns, a key goal for any well designed software.

Con
•••
Not great for large complex applications
Rack is a very bare-bones middleware useful for easily creating REST APIs without too many bells and whistles. As such, it may prove useless to build a complex web application that relies on the backend for most of its operations with Rack.

Great ecosystem
There's a great community and ecosystem built around Rack. You can easily find pre-built components to do almost anything you are planning to.
