Hello all. I have a very Enterprise-level question here. (Whatever that means! :)
My agency has a solid investment in IBM iSeries equipment, and we have several large applications written in Java running on OS/400. ColdFusion is not supported on OS/400, but I have seen one article on the Web claiming that it will run on WebSphere on OS/400. I cannot get support from Adobe on this issue. Has anyone ever gotten this to work? Let's assume that we can't get CF running on OS/400. Does anyone here have any experience getting CF to use Java resources on a remote server? For performance reasons, I'm not sure yet if we're interested in taking the SOA approach and making the CF server consume tons of SOAP-based web services. Am I right in my assumption that there would be a significant performance hit in doing that? If CF can tap into Java objects directly and that results in better performance, can we do that without CF needing to sit on the same server as the Java bytecode? Our other option is running PHP in some kind of AIX converter on OS/400, but I'd love to continue using ColdFusion! Any solutions/suggestions involving the mangled mess of possibilities listed above would DEFINITELY be appreciated. I'm not very familiar with these low-level technology issues because I've relied on scripting languages in common configurations up to this point. Our Java programmers here scratch their heads at these questions.
