Yes you're right, We sell only J2EE versions running on any Java Application server. The biggest advantage of the enterprise version is, that you have a server administrator, where you can set up things like: - global datasources for all railo-webs - global mappings - global custom tags - global cfx tags - global security settings or individual for each web
With every version of railo you can set up JSP and Railo Tag libraries and Railo function libraries. You don't need to use the <cfimport tag in each cfm-file. Once globally defined, you can use it anywhere. I would advise anyone who wants to run more than 5-10 different webs, that he should buy the enterprise version, in order to manage all webs from a central point (server administrator). If you use the professional version, you only have for instance 9 single railos... With no server administrator. Hope this helps.

I think I agree with chirs: "1 web server document root directory." I'll explain it how it would work where I work. We have a nice big box that we use and it runs Jboss application server. Inside of that we run 10 instances of CFMX 7. This allows each department to use the same box, less hardware and few MX licenses. Since each department has thier own instance of CF running it keeps each department, theoretically, from messing up each others websites. So if we got the professional version: 200 Euro + 9 extra webs = 1,100 Euro Enterprise Version: 1,600 Euro. In USD that's about 250 for one instance + 125 per each additional instance and about 2,000 for the enterprise. Remember though these figures could be a bit lower or higher depending on how much the conversion over to euro was at the time and the broker fee ect. I like to use XE.com to get my estimates. The way they are licensing Railo is different than many j2ee apps. Most j2ee apps are licensed per CPU. Railo seems to be going per instance. In comparison since our servers are quad processors we have to have 2 licenses per server from Adobe (but we can launch as many instances as we want). Where as we would only need 1 license from Railo for the server but if we wanted to deploy a bunch of instances we may go for the enterprise license as opposed to the professional licence. At least that is my understanding Gert, of course, could mean something completely different and I could be completely wrong.
