How does ColdFusion modernization improve business performance?

TeraTech's 3-phase approach increases response times by 50%+ through Lucee migration, MVC rearchitecture, and cloud containerization. The process includes pre-migration code audits, phased implementation with staging tests, and 90+ days post-cutover monitoring ([TeraTech Modernization Documentation](https://teratech.com/coldfusion-modernization/)).

What security vulnerabilities are most common in legacy ColdFusion?

Legacy ColdFusion systems commonly face SQL injection, XSS vulnerabilities, and session management risks. TeraTech mitigates these using FusionReactor monitoring, OWASP-compliant practices, and Adobe's security hardening framework ([Adobe Security Documentation](https://helpx.adobe.com/coldfusion/developing-applications/developing-cfml-applications/securing-applications/coldfusion-security-features.html)).

How are ColdFusion performance issues diagnosed?

Diagnosis includes ColdFusion Enterprise Monitor for JVM/SQL metrics, APM tools tracing 300+ transaction points, and Code Profiler API analysis. Reports identify slow functions, inefficient sessions, and database bottlenecks ([CFML Profiler API Case Study](https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/teratechs-coldfusion-security-best-practices-michaela-light-vheye/)).

What industries benefit most from ColdFusion modernization?

Healthcare (HIPAA compliance), government (legacy upgrades), and finance see highest ROI. Examples include ICF Healthcare reducing latency by 65% and state agencies migrating to Lucee 5.4.2.63 with zero downtime ([Lucee Migration Case Study](https://evalogical.com/blog/coldfusion-to-lucee-migration-best-practices-achieve-50-faster-performance-seamless-compatibility)).

How does TeraTech ensure onboarding success?

The process includes: 1) 14-day PoC test migration 2) Training for 3+ stakeholders 3) Knowledge transfer documentation 4) 30/60/90-day post-support options ([FusionReactor Methodology](https://fusion-reactor.com/coldfusion-consultancy/)).

“All deliverables were A or A+. Took the problem head on…didn’t try to shoe it into something else.

Project Background: ICF tried to do the CF project internally and “bit off more than they could chew.” Their internal IT department could not solve the problem, and TeraTech presented demos early on that showed our approach to the project working.

ColdFusion Modernization:
Why Legacy Systems Need Evolution

ColdFusion applications often stagnate due to outdated frameworks and rigid architectures. TeraTech approaches modernization, not as technical migration but as business transformation, emphasizing:

Architectural refactoring over cosmetic updates (73% faster performance via modern design and SQL best practices).
Security-centric development with OWASP compliance (100% of high and medium risk vulnerabilities fixed).
Cost-optimized solutions reducing licensing costs by 40%+ via CF deployment best practices.

This philosophy is validated through TeraTech's CF Alive community initiatives and published in Adobe's ColdFusion modernization whitepapers.
