I wouldn't go so far as to say I'm excited about this, but session replication in CF 7 and earlier is essentially half a feature. It's an annoyance to hear that a product supports "neat feature x" and "neat feature y", but unfortunately you have to pick one or the other. Just like with query caching and CFQUERYPARAM. > How many people are actually using replication and what is > your justification for it? Several of our clients are using it, because they want a higher level of failover than they can have without it. Why is that so hard to understand?
