'is there any book called "PHP by April30th"??' - lol
A couple folks have asked for it, so here's the text of the announcement
that hosting partners received yesterday
(apologies if my Netscape Communicator email program parses the line feeds
weirdly):
-----
Dear Partner,
On April 30, 2001, Macromedia will be announcing the launch of ColdFusion
Server 5 and the ColdFusion Server 5
Hosting Service Provider Edition, which consists of a new End-User License
for commercial hosting service
providers.
We are excited to provide you with advanced notice of our announcement of
the launch of a new Hosting Edition for
ColdFusion 5.0 that offers Web Hosting partners improved functionality as
well as new licensing terms.
Improved Functionality
ColdFusion Server 5 has new functionality that will help hosters improve the
management and enhance the performance
of hosted ColdFusion servers. It also provides existing ColdFusion users
with numerous new features that should
drive more business for ColdFusion hosters. The following is brief
description of some of those features:
* SNMP MIB (Management Information Base)- Provides performance and
availability data so that ColdFusion
servers can be monitored from within an enterprise systems management
console.
* Custom Logs - Provides administrators with the ability to customize
log reports for individual applications
on a shared hosted ColdFusion server.
* Enhanced Hardware Load Balancer Integration - Provides the
capability to run a server agent that is capable
of passing CF application server load and application health information to
any of the popular hardware load
balancing devices, providing a higher level of site availability and better
overall load balancing.
* Application Monitoring- Enables server administrators to configure
custom monitors that respond to page or
application-specific thresholds. When a threshold is passed, the server can
send an automatic notification, trigger
an automated response, or send a notification to an enterprise management
console via SNMP
* Application Deployment Services- Provides site archiving features
that enable easy back-up and deployment
of applications and/or ColdFusion Server configuration data. This simplifies
server(s) management by enabling the
easy movement of applications between servers, such as from testing to
production or from one production server to
another in a data center.
* Merant ODBC Drivers- ColdFusion 5.0 now includes the Merant ODBC 3.7
drivers on all platforms, including
new wire protocol drivers which provide a consistently high-performance
interface to all popular data sources.
New Licensing Terms
The new ColdFusion Server 5 Hosting Service Provider Edition is for web
hosting service providers that provide
shared hosting services (host multiple ColdFusion applications and/or sites
on a single ColdFusion server) for the
ColdFusion platform. Starting with the release of ColdFusion 5, the
End-User License right to host multiple
ColdFusion applications and/or sites on a single ColdFusion server will only
be included in the ColdFusion 5
Hosting Service Provider Edition license. The ColdFusion 5 Enterprise and
Pro End-User License will no longer
permit multiple ColdFusion applications and/or sites to be hosted on a
single ColdFusion server. Web hosters that
are purchasing ColdFusion 5 servers to host multiple ColdFusion applications
and/or sites on a single ColdFusion 5
server will need to purchase the ColdFusion 5 Hosting Service Provider
Edition.
Web hosters that provide dedicated ColdFusion hosting services (host one
ColdFusion application and/or site on a
single ColdFusion server), will be able to continue to host ColdFusion
customers on either a ColdFusion Enterprise
or Pro server license.
The ColdFusion 5 Hosting Service Provider Edition:
* Will be priced on a per CPU basis
* Can be purchased directly from Macromedia on a per CPU basis, or
through Macromedia's Commercial Service
Providers (CSP) License Program that provides payment terms that map to a
Hosting Service Providers business model.
* Will also be offered through Macromedia's reseller and distributor
channels.
In an effort to help our Hosting Partners take advantage of the upcoming
demand for ColdFusion 5 features,
Macromedia will be providing a special promotional upgrade offer. More
information regarding ColdFusion 5 Hosting
Edition upgrade promotion, pricing and availability will be released on
April 30, 2001.
