I am speaking on “Selling ColdFusion to Clients” at CFUNITED-07. I think ColdFusion compares well techically to Java, .Net and PHP. It is often much faster to develop in CF than other web languages – partly due to it being tag based, due to the large amount of build in functionality that has an easy […]

Flex – The turtle (Webservice) and the hare (RemoteObject)

June 25, 2023 By Michaela Light Leave a Comment

Hello World, Mark Piller just posted a fascinating blog about the performance and speed differences between using Webservices, HTTPServices, and RemoteObjects in Flex.
