Now children lets quit the pissing contest and try to get along or I'm sending both of you to separate corners for the rest of the play period.
um sorry been around the 3 year old too much lately. -- That said, I've been running CF7 Enterprise and BlueDragon 7 for J2EE side by side for almost a year now. They deploy the same with the cfm and related files being warred along with the relevant support files. The war or ear files are deployed to the app server (in this case JBoss EAP). The apps I develop do not use any vendor specific code. I can take the exact same code set and deploy it on either the BD or CF instances and there is no real noticeable difference. As far as the user is concerned there is no difference. There are a couple of things that are specific to BlueDragon (ie., cfimage and interfaces) and some stuff that's specific to CF, but its all stuff I don't use. The only real difference I've seen is that BD appears to run a bit faster. I don't have any stats for that, I haven't run any load testing yet. That said one critical difference is that I've found New Atlanta to be much more responsive to questions and user comments than Adobe. I had one question that I sent into NA and got an answer later from the president of New Atlanta, Vince Bonfanti. I ended up getting a minor patch for my problem emailed to me from NA about a couple of days later. In response to another problem the New Atlanta support engineers wrote DLL's so that a .Net app could communicate with another of our apps. I have never had that response from Adobe, or MacroMedia for that matter. That level of customer service is critical. And its not really because we were paying customers. I've seen New Atlanta do the same for people using the free server. Finally a big difference is the cost. BD for J2EE is considerably cheaper than CF8 Enterprise and performs the same. That is a big advantage. regards, larry >You're an idiot... > > > >And we're back. > >Where'd you go there ol' buddy? > >Find your happy place? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;192386516;25150098;k Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:258995 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5
