RE: on-line banking
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that there's no CF-based product that does online banking. I work at the largest credit union in Arizona, specifically on our online banking system, so I've done a lot of homework on this subject. Prior to moving to ASP, we were a strictly CF house so I had a big interest in staying in the CF orbit. Developing an online banking product is a daunting task because there are tons of different core processing systems that banks and credit unions can use and each one has a different request/response method. What's more, these must generally have outstanding uptime and process high volumes of transactions. The online banking product we use is Corillian's Voyager (http://www.corillian.com/). It is ASP or ASP.NET for the front end and a huge apparatus for the back end. Since it uses a COM object to link the two sides, I suppose that a front end could be written in CF5 that would probably perform admirably. Another one that looks pretty interesting is QBT's MultiPoint. It's a Java-based middleware server that interacts with the core processor and exposes methods for a front end of any persuasion to use in generating transactions. Mind you, it's still a daunting task, but at least you wouldn't have to worry about the back end as much.

RE: on-line banking
Can only speak as an user. But I happen to be a customer, and I noticed that US Bank, (www.usbank.com) Was at least at one time, was CFM based. May not be anymore. But if you could find a contact there that would talk to you, they could be quite a resource. -- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource Sacramento, CA -Original Message- From: Tim Laureska [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 31, 2003 5:07 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: on-line banking I have a bank client who now wants to jump into on-line banking I am looking for any suggestions/comments/references I know there are many canned packages out there, but I'm looking for those that may be CF based and proven.

I have two accounts with local banks and they both use a mix of JSP and CGI. -Original Message- From: Ian Skinner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 31, 2003 12:16 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: on-line banking Can only speak as an user.

Re: on-line banking
I might also add that a site that provides on-line banking has a variety of needs and functions There are information only pages, some of which change often. There are forms, both secure and nonsecure There are worksheets/interactive apps/training. There are flashy ads and offers There are pages that display secure banking information There are pages that interact and change secure banking information There are pages that combine data from multiple incompatible back-end systems. There are user customization and preference settings Not all of these need to be handled using the same server technologies. Jerry Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED] 07/31/03 11:50AM Tim, Bill is on the money on his comments. On-line banking requires heavy iron, heavy security, lot of customization and must be fast and easy to use at the same time. There will be folks on the list that say ETradeBank uses CF -- however they use CF to connect directly to java servlets. Bill is also right when he's pointing you to more java (and .net) based solutions (Keep in mind, I'm not saying CF could not do the job-- just that security concerns will demand this product to be more robust and complex than most web applications out there-- and requiring a more customized solution!). Even on the finantial solution products I have been involved in -- there has been heavy customization, even on the off-the-shelf products. If you want to discuss this off the list please feel free to contact me using the information below.

Re: on-line banking
I can understand why a bank wouldn't want to trust their middle-tier to CF, but that doesn't mean CF is a bad option for their presentation-tier. A correctly put together Java middle-tier can be easily accessible from CF allow for a very robust, yet rapidly deployable application. -Matt On Thursday, July 31, 2003, at 10:53 AM, Bill Brown wrote: I'm going to go out on a limb and say that there's no CF-based product that does online banking.
