DEVELOPING COLDFUSION 9 APPLICATIONS
What's New
Service features
ColdFusion as a service
ColdFusion exposes many existing enterprise services as web services. You can access these services using SOAP and
AMF/Flash remoting.
The following are the exposed services:
• cfpdf
• cfImage
• cfdocument
• cfmail
• cfpop
• cfchart
You can secure the exposed services to prevent access by unknown applications and users. You can do this by
configuring the client IP address range to which services are accessible. You can also set up user access control for the
services.
Other enhancements
Server Manager
Server Manager is an AIR-based desktop application that allows you to centrally manage multiple ColdFusion servers
from one location.
The application enables ColdFusion server administrators to monitor and manage multiple servers and apply the
settings from one ColdFusion server to other ColdFusion servers.
Server Manager provides improved system management and minimizes errors by ensuring a consistent configuration
across multiple servers or clusters.
You can use Server Manager to:
• Create data sources
• Schedule tasks and notify alerts
• Apply hot fixes
• Clear cache across a cluster of ColdFusion servers
• Compare settings across servers
• Monitor server health
For more information, see Working with Server Manager.
Built-in support for portlet standards
This release supports JSR-168, JSR-286, and WSRP specifications. Now you can easily build ColdFusion-powered
content for leading portal servers.
You can define a ColdFusion component as a portlet. Exposing of all enterprise applications, including ColdFusion
applications, in one integrated portal has improved application user experience.
For more information, see
ColdFusion
Portlets.
