My point was that a press release is hardly from an unbiased source,
and therefore I have problems getting excited about what I read in
them.  Hell, the company that I work for sends us emails ("We're in
the News!"), which i get excited about...until I pull up the link and
it's a press release.

Hey, it says we're wonderful!  Of course it's going to say we're
wonderful.  We wrote it!!! :)

Re: 5th Most Trafficked Site Switches to BlueDragon

2005-06-28 Thread Ken Ferguson
This is one of those things that make you want to place your head on the 
ground and get a running start before kicking it across the room. I had 
a client with a project VERY SIMILAR to myspace.com a few years ago who 
wanted to offer me a substantial share of ownership in return for 
building it and I didn't really feel like it was worth getting involved 
in. My reluctance was, in part, due to the fact that it was to be a 
paid-only site with no free access, but was also due to an overall 
skepticism about whether the idea was viable in and of itself. Now I 
look back and wonder why I didn't jump all over it and do all I could to 
talk the guy into going the free access route. Oh well, who needs 
boatloads of cash anyway, right???

and such) that will set up a myspace account just because so many of
their fans live on myspace. That's on top of any kind of website we
build them.  It's one of those crazy phenomenons like hotornot.com was

Most likely it's something pushed in the media in the USso us

To be honest I rarely visit any of the top 5 that were listed.  eBay is
the only one I actively use.and that's only because it's pretty much
impossible to find freestyle standup jetski parts where I live!!

Well Johnfirst you need a large target on a wallthe center being the 
most traffic.then you give a monkey a pail full of big spit balls each 
containing the name of a website.  The monkey flings the spit balls (monkeys 
are good at flinging stuff you know...so they are well suited for this task) 
at the wallsand voila! traffic rankings

Perhaps someone has a slightly more scientific outlook on the processbut 
I think I've come close in my assessment ;-)

(2) I'm married, but is 44 still young?
(3) Moved out of the cave a few years ago.

Re: 5th Most Trafficked Site Switches to BlueDragon

2005-06-28 Thread Adrocknaphobia
I have some serious doubts that it is ranked the #5 most viewed
website. Where is that ranking coming from?

For those not in the know, mySpace is basically liveJournal (a blog)
and Friendster (community/networking) all in one. If you are single
and under the age of 25, you've most likely been on a date with
someone you met on mySpace. I think that is the best way to sum it up.

Not at allwhat is it...never heard of it?

Most likely it's something pushed in the media in the USso us Canucks 
don't see it unless we go hunting for it.

To be honest I rarely visit any of the top 5 that were listed.  eBay is the 
only one I actively use.and that's only because it's pretty much 
impossible to find freestyle standup jetski parts where I live!!

According to comScore Media Metrix (see the link Rey offers below), the top
five in May 2005 are:

1. Yahoo
2. MSN
3. AOL
4. eBay
5. MySpace

The comScore Media Metrix report is used to set advertising rates, sort of
the "Nielsen ratings of the web."

i'm having a clairvoyant moment where this thread rapidly degrades
into yet another "fusebox is wonderful" vs "fusebox bites the wax
tadpole" debates that rages OT for days and in the end, accomplishes
nothing.  Throw in a few pleas from bored HoF members to please move
the topic to community for good measure.

how about just bypassing that whole ugly scene and just concentrating
on the whole 'heavily trafficked site' running on CFML (regardless of
implementation).

'tis a pretty cool thing :)

If they count all the includes implied a Fusebox site, no wonder it is a 
high-traffic site ;-))

Anyone can write a lab benchmark to get any result they want. That's why you
should never trust lab benchmarks, especially from vendors (even New
Atlanta, which is why we never publish any). The MySpace testing was all
done on real-world code in their real-world production environment.

All of their tests were done using the exact same CFML code in their
production environment. These were "real world" tests--as real as it
gets--these were not lab benchmarks. (Nobody has a lab that can generate the
kind of traffic they get in production).

RE: 5th Most Trafficked Site Switches to BlueDragon

2005-06-28 Thread Vince Bonfanti
MySpace did evaluate CFMX, before BlueDragon even, and found that CFMX
performance and stability didn't match BlueDragon.NET. If you're at
CFUNITED, come to the New Atlanta/MySpace keynote address this Friday
afternoon. Peter Amiri, Director of Technical Operations for MySpace, will
talk in more detail about their decision to go with BlueDragon.

BTW, there are many other companies who have been evaluating and deploying
BlueDragon.NET over the past few months. All consistently tell us that the
performance and reliability are better than CFMX in real-world applications.
In fact, the very first customer to deploy on BlueDragon.NET switched from
CFMX.

Re: 5th Most Trafficked Site Switches to BlueDragon

2005-06-28 Thread Charlie Griefer
I don't think it's flaweddepending upon interpretation.

They said that BD ran significantly faster than CF 5.

They also said that it showed better stability and performance than CFMX.

That last part is what's subject to interpretation.

My interpretation is that they evaluated CFMX (and BD) before deciding
upon BD based upon the fact that it "showed better stability and
performance".

I'm further inferring that the code used to test/compare was
similar...otherwise you're right, and it's not necessarily a
fair/valid comparison.

Maybe Vince or somebody from NA (if they're at liberty to do so) can
further elaborate on how MySpace.com came to the conclusions that BD
was the better/more stable product.

RE: 5th Most Trafficked Site Switches to BlueDragon

2005-06-28 Thread Burns, John D
I don't understand that one either.  Did they switch from 5 to BD or
from MX to BD?  Also, stability can often be based on the quality of the
coding itself. I'm not saying that BD doesn't offer a better product
than MM or that myspace isn't loving it, I'm just saying that the way it
was presented seems flawed.

My only concern with this statement is that CFMX 6.1 or 7 would probably
show similar increases over CF 5. Comparing Blue Dragon to CF 5 is kind
of an unfair comparison.  Congrats to New Atlanta, and I hope this will
boost some of their efforts and allow them to grow even more, but I just
wanted to point out that the comparison seemed flawed to me.

Ah, gotcha.  By mentioning the error message, I thought you were using 
the term "fuseboxed" as a euphemism for "it's broken", which is actually 
kind of funny.

This error has been forwarded to MySpace's technical group.*

Re: 5th Most Trafficked Site Switches to BlueDragon

2005-06-28 Thread Barney Boisvert
While I don't doubt that BD may be faster than CFMX, I simply cannot
see BD as a better product.  I've found it to have a significantly
higher number of bugs than CFMX, and while many of these bugs wouldn't
affect many developers, they're still bugs, which indicates some kind
of problems in the development process (lack of comprehensive
regression testing, for example).  I should also clarifiy by saying
that I've only ever run the standalone (Java-based) server, not the
..NET server, but from my understanding, the two are VERY similar.

So as long as you can dodge the bugs, BD is definitely a candidate. 
But I suspect the time spent dodging bugs would more then pay for a
couple extra servers, particularly with developing a large project,
let alone the maintenance phase.

Note that I don't want to be little NA in any way.  They're doing a
fantastic job competing in a market that is utterly stacked against
them.  And while they do a lot of things I could wish MM to do (be
massively receptive to use feedback, provide a free edition, etc.),
their core product is somewhat inferior in some ways.

cheers,
barneyb

Subject: 5th Most Trafficked Site Switches to BlueDragon

In a huge coup, my boys at New Atlanta have won a MAJOR deal and are 
helping MySpace.com, the fifth most heavily trafficked web site on the 
Internet,make the switch from Macromedia ColdFusion 5.0 to New Atlanta's 
BlueDragon for .NET. MySpace is easily the largest CFML-based site on 
the Internet; to put things into perspective, MySpace has surpassed both 
Google and Hotmail in terms of total page views 2and currently handles 
more than 18 million members. Who says CFML isn't viable! Woohoo!

The part that caught my eye was that in their testing, MySpace saw a 50% 
performance improvement over ColdFusion 5.0 as well as better stability 
and performance than even CFMX.

This is a massive win for New Atlanta and further vindication that their 
BlueDragon product-line is a "more-than-viable" (dare I say better) 
alternative to Macromedia's ColdFusion server.

Full details of the deal can be found on Vince Bonfanti's blog
