For Web-application developers and IT project managers, each day brings the challenge of keeping up with the ever-growing demand for Internet applications. Users not only want more applications, but they also want these applications to do more. But the more features and functionality developers build into Web applications, the more difficult they are to debug and tune. With Adobe ColdFusion 8, you can build compelling, robust applications that meet users demanding requirements more quickly and easily. Plus, because Adobe ColdFusion 8 is the fastest ColdFusion version ever, you can realize immediate performance gains--without any changes to the application code.
See exactly what is happening in every application, identify and fix bottlenecks before deployment, and tune the server for maximum performance. Use new debugging features that make it easier to debug code that does not run in a browser. Deploy Internet applications on leading J2EE application servers and smoothly integrate the applications into virtually any enterprise environment. And make users more productive with robust, multimedia-rich applications that run faster than ever before.
Product highlights:
- Create applications in less time with fewer lines of code.
- Realize significant out-of-the-box performance increases for existing Adobe ColdFusion applications.
- Resolve bottlenecks quickly and tune applications for optimal performance.
- Increase end-user productivity with richer, more robust applications.
- Integrate Internet applications into virtually any enterprise environment.
Top reasons to buy Adobe ColdFusion 8 Standard: - Create applications in less time: develop applications more rapidly in the easy-to-use ColdFusion development environment.
- Write applications with fewer lines of code: reduce the number of lines of code in every application by encapsulating complex actions into simple, intuitive tags.
- Smoothly integrate Internet applications into virtually any enterprise environment: Make Adobe ColdFusion 8 applications the hub of all enterprise resources thanks to support for both Java and .NET objects. Leverage integration with Microsoft Exchange Server to enable ColdFusion 8 applications to access calendars, tasks, and contacts.
- Deploy applications natively on leading server platforms: let Adobe ColdFusion 8 applications run natively on leading J2EE application servers, including IBM WebSphere, BEA WebLogic, and JBoss.
- Enhance end-user experiences and productivity: create personalized, multimedia-rich applications in Adobe Flex or Ajax; let users interact with PDF forms; deliver more compelling, structured reports; and enable users to view high-quality, on-demand presentations that include animation, audio, and video.
- Easily debug application code: set breakpoints, watch variables, and step through code, making it easier to debug code that does not run in a browser, such as ColdFusion components (CFCs), Web services, and remote calls to Flex applications.
- Implement advanced CFML features: use CFC interfaces and serialization, SFTP, JavaScript style operators, and argument collections for tags.
