ColdFusion


In computing, ColdFusion is a commercial rapid application development platform invented by Jeremy and JJ Allaire in 1995. 

Originally designed to make it easier to connect simple HTML pages to a database, by version 2 (1996) 

It had become a full platform that included an IDE in addition to a "full" scripting language. As of 2010, versions of ColdFusion (sold by Adobe Systems from 2005) include advanced features for enterprise integration and development of rich Internet applications (RIA).


Main features

ColdFusion provides a number of additional features out of the box. Among them:
  • Simplified database access
  • Client and server cache management
  • Client-side code generation, especially for form widgets and validation
  • Conversion from HTML to PDF and FlashPaper
  • Data retrieval from common enterprise systems such as Active Directory, LDAP, SMTP, POP, HTTP, FTP, Microsoft Exchange Server and common data formats such as RSS and Atom
  • File indexing and searching service based on Verity K2
  • GUI administration
  • Server, application, client, session, and request scopes
  • XML parsing, querying (XPath), validation and transformation (XSLT)
  • Server clustering
  • Task scheduling
  • Graphing and reporting
  • Simplified file manipulation including raster graphics (and CAPTCHA) and zip archives (introduction of video manipulation is planned in a future release)
  • Simplified web service implementation (with automated WSDL generation / transparent SOAPASP.NET  has no native equivalent for <CFINVOKE WEBSERVICE="http://host/tempconf.cfc?wsdl" METHOD="Celsius2Fahrenheit" TEMP="#tempc#" RETURNVARIABLE="tempf"> handling for both creating and consuming services - as an example
