Lori Pacheco - BlueDragon: Editions and Advantages

With all the talk today about BlueDragon.NET, it's easy to think that that's all that BlueDragon is about. There are in fact other editions of BlueDragon, including a standalone server (more familiar in concept to traditional ColdFusion server) and an edition that deploys CFML on any J2EE server in just 3 steps. Beyond the different editions, there are also many advantages to using BlueDragon, and it's about a lot more than just some new tags and functions. Come learn the many advantages that simply make existing CFML run better, make managing the CFML engine easier, and make troubleshooting CFML coding errors a breeze.

Josh Adams - Benefits of Integrating CFML with ASP.NET

If your organization is contemplating (or has already started) to move to .NET, or when you see the many advantages in ASP.NET and the .NET Framework, you may desire to better integrate your CFML with the ASP.NET pages and components that your .NET developers are creating. With BlueDragon.NET, the doors to integration are wide open. Come learn how CFML and ASP.NET can share session, application, and request variables, how CFML and ASP.NET pages can include/forward between each other, and more. A CFML page can call a .NET component, and an ASP.NET page can invoke a CFC--both without web services, with components of both types returning native objects that the other page will understand. All this and more will be demonstrated, with plenty of code examples.

Josh Adams - Benefits of Deploying CFML on .NET Versus Java/J2EE

Running your CFML on the .NET Framework gives you advantages over the Java/J2EE based form of deployment that you've heard about (and perhaps been using) for some years. This talk will focus on the performance, reliability, and scalability enhancements provided by running CFML, unchanged, on the .NET Framework using BlueDragon for Micrsoft .NET Framework (a.k.a. BlueDragon.NET). Come learn how to take advantage of those enhancements, especially as enabled by Windows Server 2003 and IIS 6 (and the upcoming IIS 7).
