ColdFusion 8.0 Server Arrives - Team-Logic Upgrades
We just installed ColdFusion 8 on some new servers that arrived this week.
This new release of ColdFusion server will bring many new features and improved performance to our applications, such as our Team-Logic CRM application and our Store-Logic eCommerce application. Team-Logic is now being moved to these new servers, which use a fiber channel connection to a large storage array network (SAN) for storage. These hardware upgrades, combined with a new security framework, will make Team-Logic faster and more robust with features, such as integration with mobile devices and Microsoft Exchange.
.Net Integration
ColdFusion 8 server also has native support for .Net objects, so we will be able to use .Net with our applications as well.
PDF support is improved
This is great news for us because we are dynamically generating PDFs in several of our applications now. We are winning a lot of government and municipal projects now, and we are seeing more PDF workflows in those environments, so this will help take our municipal web application further.
AJAX
We are upgrading all of our applications with AJAX, and they all have AJAX technology in them now in one fashion or another. With server-based AJAX integration, this will simplify how we use the AJAX libraries in our ColdFusion applications.
Improved Uptime
There are additional features to the new server platform’s administration and debugging that will give us more information on any problems that may arise in hosted applications, making them easier to debug. This will help with response times.
I’ll give a full report plus some sample uses of the new features in ColdFusion 8 as we launch them.
