Just saw your question, Greg; sorry for the late reply...but hopefully late is better than never given that as well as I can tell no one else responded.
There is of course no open-source version of ColdFusion, but there are open-source CFML engines. None of these engines is equivalent to ColdFusion; as to whether or not any of them will be sufficient for running your application, for that you will of course have to test. But based on what you're saying, I think it's a moot point because ColdFusion's license accommodates failover configurations. A ColdFusion license cannot be used for clustering or any kind of concurrent use, but failover use is in compliance with the license terms and conditions. The failover configuration must of course be properly licensed (so let's say you have a single ColdFusion license and you're using it on a server with 1 or 2 CPUs; you can failover to a server with 1 or 2 CPUs, but not to a server with more than 2 CPUs).

I am in the midst of mapping out a disaster recovery strategy for our CF applications and in a potential cost-saving effort we are going over any open source options if there are any (just for the DR instance). Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated. Greg McTure Races are Won at the Finish - To succeed we must do more than begin. "Most people do not lose the race. They just fail to reach the end.
