There is one called Cartweaver http://www.cartweaver.com/ I used an earlier version and found it was OK but lacking some flexibility, especially with product categories. The latest version may have improved though. It was easy enough to integrate into sites. Cassie -Original Message--

Hi folks, Does anyone have any recommendations for a ColdFusion based open- source shopping cart? It doesn't have to be free, just fully customisable. It would be good if it supported loyalty programs and promotional codes as well. I've tried CF-EZcart before. It's ok, but I'd like to know what

HI, Its always worth it ( imho ). A year or more ago we went from an aging dual-core machine as our SQL server to a dual quad-core SQL 2005 64bit cluster. Its reliable and blindingly fast. I recall a certain report that took 15 minutes reduce to about 30 seconds. Having 32gig ram per server h

2008-10-12 Thread Scott Thornton
Hi, Typically the install configuration would have your CF server and your Db server separate anyways. I think from memory you will find that SQL server will write to your log first, and then to the physical database table. So don't forget to place your log on a fast disk\network as well. Th

@Scott Thornton "Also clustering sql server for the ultimate in redundancy." if someone was after hot-swapping from a primary to a back-up machine, would clustering those two (and ensuring neither hits over 50% use) get the same thing? (ie: is it worth it just for two?) (this is putting aside t

My network is gigabit so i am hoping it wont be too bad. The database server is currently on a different system to the web server anyway. What i am wanting to know is if the data is written to the MDF file as quickly as it would if it was on the same physical system as the sql server itself, or i

What are you meaning by redundant SQL servers? In my opinion the answer would be delayed, if you are wanting to keep connectivity in case of an emergency. Clustering, replication are some other options. Anything else on my part would be a guess. From: cfaussie@googlegroups.com

HI, There will be an inherent delay in DB access across a network. It will only be as fast as the slowest piece of your network. That's why we put our DB databases on disks in a SAN, all connected up with gigabit ethernet. Pretty much next to the database server in a rack. What do you mean re
