Unless I missed it, Adobe has not certified ColdFusion 9.0.x on Java 8. < Remember this as I continue
Also, Adobe ColdFusion 9.x.x reached End Of Life back on December 31st, 2014. http://www.trunkful.com/index.cfm/2014/11/24/ColdFusion-9-Reaches-End-Of-Life-Long-Live-ColdFusion < Remember this too Now, that I got those two items out of the way I will say that while researching and testing ColdFusion potential POODLE issues via CFHTTP I did happen to successfully attempt to run ColdFusion 9.0.2 fully patched on Java 1.8. (This blog post BTW: http://www.trunkful.com/index.cfm/2014/12/8/Preventing-SSLv3-Fallback-in-ColdFusion - The note at the bottom) There were no errors or warnings. I was able to run some code. I by no means tried to test all the functionality because I had a different goal to achieve when I was doing my research. So it could very well be possible. However I do have another concern. The company/agency youre working for is requiring Java to be up to date, but not ColdFusion? I would embrace the Java 8 upgrade and say then we need to buy ColdFusion 11 and make the migration.
