CFCamp 2018 Announcements and Big Expectations

“What is CFCamp”

CFCamp was created with the purpose of providing general training for both beginner and advanced level CFML programmers. The conference began life in 2008 with 100 attendees and 9 sessions. In 2011 we revived the conference and hosted 120 attendees and 9 sessions.

CFCamp has established itself over the years as a very well known conference in the CFML community and is the only CFML conference in Europe.”

Great news for all CFers out there.

This year's conference will be on 8.+9. November at Courtyard Hotel Munich Garching. It is a brand new hotel.*

As you know this is the only CF conference in Europe so book your ticket on time.

“*By brand new I we mean it literally: The hotel is currently a construction site and will open late spring this year.”

Location

It is a new hotel about 15 minutes away from Munich airport and easily accessible via metro. As always, the organizers do find a nice spot for us to meet. I do know that they must have a nice bar area though…

Well, it seems there's been a change. Do to circumstances beyond their (organizers) control they are changing it to be at the Munich Airport Marriot Hotel. We hear it's very nice, and we heard also something about a special beer house…? 🙂

And to continue learning how to make your ColdFusion apps more modern and alive, I encourage you to download our free ColdFusion Alive Best Practices Checklist.

Because… perhaps you are responsible for a mission-critical or revenue-generating CF application that you don’t trust 100%, where implementing new features is a painful ad-hoc process with slow turnaround even for simple requests.

What if you have no contingency plan for a sudden developer departure or a server outage? Perhaps every time a new freelancer works on your site, something breaks. Or your application availability, security, and reliability are poor.

And if you are depending on ColdFusion for your job, then you can’t afford to let your CF development methods die on the vine.

You’re making a high-stakes bet that everything is going to be OK using the same old app creation ways in that one language — forever.

All it would take is for your fellow CF developer to quit or for your CIO to decide to leave the (falsely) perceived sinking ship of CFML and you could lose everything—your project, your hard-won CF skills, and possibly even your job.

Luckily, there are a number of simple, logical steps you can take now to protect yourself from these obvious risks.
