That sounds amazingly simple. Hmmm... now to find a good way to keep the file systems in sync, since I've started generating a lot of static content... :-P > If you need load balancing and failover then you can add Apache and mod_jk > to handle that. AJP is where it's at, hombre. :-) I'm really loving having static stuff just served up by apache and only ringing CF when there's some thinking to be done. > As an alternative to CF8 Enterprise, if you do not need the CF8 specific > stuff, you may want to consider Open Blue Dragon - the open source version > of BlueDragon for J2EE.

At this point, so much is being handled by specialized software, I could probably use just about anything. I do like model-glue and ORMs, so that would be swell... but after getting into hibernate, I'm wondering about where to keep my model. The tools for Java are so nice... so I'm left with like a front-end controller... *sigh* *shrug*. JBoss is freaking insane tho. Wow, talk about a lot of cool stuff. I've really enjoyed using it. Plus, lots of nifty plugins for Eclipse ;-) It would be interesting to fire up another cf engine, and see if much of my stuff runs on it... I've never really taken any of the others out for a spin. I've got a certain loyalty to the original, and none of the open source ones really seemed open source... still, as someone heatedly pointed out a while back, it's the decent thing to do. If I have something nifty, I guess I don't want to lock the other engines out... At any rate, with CF8 and JBoss, I've been happy. Now I can run jasperserver and whatnot in the same setup (easy, vs. sorta hard w/jrun). And I have to say it again... the stuff you can plug into jboss... wow. Ok, enough happy-happy joy-joy, I reckon. Just wanted to voice a "CF8 and JBoss are the bee's knees" me too type-of-comment. =] |Denny -- I thank you God for this most amazing day, for the leaping greenly spirits of trees, and for the blue dream of sky and for everything which is natural, which is infinite, which is yes. e. e. cummings ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;192386516;25150098;k Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:304628 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
