Is there any advantage to having a CFC hand off database operations to java or some derivative over letting cfquery handle them itself? I have seen people use the CFC as a wrapper for using another language to handle the database access, but I have never seen a concrete explanation for doing this.
I am looking for speed advantages, mainly. Is there any language that is faster at database interactions than CF on a large scale, or does it even matter? I am pretty sure no matter what I do, the database is going to be the choke point, but every little bit helps, especially when scaling up and things get wonky. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:351888 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
