OK, so I have a web server and basically all the CF apps on it were
created by me although some of them were tied into websites that were
already built. So what is considered the application? The CF app
itself or the overall website? I have a couple sites with
applications that were built then moved to my server. However before
anything goes live on my server I go in, go through the application
and make any necessary changes to make it run safely on my server.
Does that mean I "helped" to build it and thus it falls under the
definition of built by a single party? Suppose I don't want or can't
afford all the functionality of CF Enterprise? Which I don't and
can't. That's why I bought Pro and not Enterprise. Why WON'T they
offer a hosting license for the Pro version for maybe 1,500 or 2,000?
6k is waaaaayyyyy too much. I licensed unlimited client access to SQL
2000 for 4,100, albeit that is per processor so I had to resort to
buying a single processor box for it. I could have licensed SQL
Enterprise for 28k. At least MS gave me a choice.
Once I got to 50 or 60 CF sites on my server I was planning on buying
a new box and buying another copy of CF. I guess I'll either have to:
a) Buy a copy or 2 of 4.5 now and HOPE I need them someday.
b) Go back to reselling services on an overloaded CF host's server,
which is why I bought my own server in the first place, to get away
from overloaded server's like many CF hosts put you on.
c) Learn another language.
