Considering CF8 is still beta and we don't know the applications you are trying to run on this. The answer is it depends. As a side note, putting a database server on the same box is a bad move. The web server and database server should be separate to obtain the best in security and utilization

On security, I want to be clear here about this. I understand people like to play fast and loose with these things, but when setting up a server configuration, you should always 'assume' the data is important and needs to be secure. Even if you know for a fact that it isn't. Why say it this way.
