Building Enterprise Portals - An Enterprise Portal is the combination of software and technology infrastructure, new business models and new organizational structures that combine to create an Internet-centric business. In short, an Enterprise Portal is what companies need to build in order to become Internet-centric companies. In my estimation, Enterprise Portals reflect three distinct observations about the Internet business landscape. URL: http://www.sys-con.com/coldfusion/imho/Buildingenterpriseportals/index.html

CNET Builder.com - Web Programming - Application Design With ColdFusion - Allaire's ColdFusion is a powerful solution for developers who wish to build secure, scalable, and manageable Web applications, but
this power can intimidate even the most seasoned programmer. Using ColdFusion efficiently requires knowledge of the product and
forethought in your application design. Application settings, code reuse, persistent variables, error catching, and application testing have all made our lives as developers easier. By Brian Kotek (11/9/99). URL: http://www.builder.com/Programming/ColdFusion/

ColdFusion Markup Language - The Yale computer scientist David Gelernter, in his book Machine Beauty: Elegance and the Heart of Technology, persuasively argues that much of the development of superior technology relies not so much on what the technology does, but how it does what it does. Specifically, Gelernter asks, does the technology work in an elegant manner and is it simple, yet powerful?
...In short, you should choose your language based on the task at hand. In many cases, as in those requiring standard network protocols and services and back-end database interactions, the extent of your programming activities can be best handled with ColdFusion technologies. CFML helps you achieve your programming goals efficiently and rapidly, and according to David Gelernter, that places the language in the category of superior technologies.

Creating a Shopping Cart with ColdFusion - The last solution is to build a cart for yourself. This is the best route to take if you know how to do it. For one, you'll get a custom solution. You'll know how it functions inside and out, so if something breaks or needs modification, you'll know how to deal with it. Assuming that you have the time to invest, all you need now is an idea of what's involved. URL: http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/99/49/index4a.html?tw=programming

Enter the Scalability Zone - During the CF 3.x product cycle, our competitors shifted to attack CF as an unsuitable product for the enterprise, questioning whether it could “scale” to support an unlimited number of concurrent users. Despite anecdotal evidence to the contrary (AutoByTel and SmartMoney interactive), some clients remained unconvinced. Allaire recognized this tactic and proceeded to load CF 4 with features to address this concern. URL: http://www.sys-con.com/coldfusion/editorials/1-3/drucker/index.html

Streamlining Data Entry Applications - You may not believe this, but you’ll probably spend more time maintaining your ColdFusion application once it goes into production than you spent developing it in the first place. Among IT professionals it’s well known that the effort required to support applications over time is significantly larger than the effort required to build them. Applications are like children: the effort and dollars required to bring them into the world are sizable, but once they’re here you’ll support them for years. Thus it behooves you to take measures to minimize the effort required to maintain your applications. But how do you do this? One of the most effective solutions is to develop standard techniques and approaches for handling similar problems.

The BlackBox Technique v1.1 - It doesn’t take a lot to develop in BlackBox. The essence of a universally available function library is encapsulated in a file called blackbox.cfm.
Instead of calling any of the pages in your library directly, you call them through one of these tags. These tags automatically recurse the directory tree and find the file, or function, you specified.
All BlackBox library functions are contained in a subdirectory in your application’s web root (not necessarily the server web root). This directory is called ‘blackbox’. Each library element you wish to add has its own directory within the ‘blackbox’ directory. URL: http://www.black-box.org/

To Lock, or Not To Lock - It is generally accepted that it is a best practice to lock shared scope variables any time there is a potential for concurrent writes, but many a developer I have run across has done a signifigant ammount of hand wringing over whether or not read locks are necessary.

Web page development heavyweight rematch - After working with both development environments, we found that Visual InterDev excels in management of the site development process and scripting. But ColdFusion Studio, Allaire's IDE for ColdFusion, has the edge over Visual InterDev with respect to HTML coding and basic database integration. This time, ColdFusion's improved coding tools and database connectivity features make it the overall winner. URL: http://www.pint.com/Workshop/art_coldfusion.htm
