Short intro to ContentBox

Modularity

Environment variables
- Available through CommandBox are also available in the ContentBox
- Make your configurations portable
- Tool where you can have the same settings, the same extensions etc. for every server that you deploy
- The main path & goal is to make CFML configurable and portable
Why is CFCONFIG important?
Configure session storage easily
- By default, the image is distributed
- Leverage a JDBC connection as a distributed cache
- How it's already done for you?
How to actually leverage a real distributed cache in order for you to store everything in database of your choice
- Granular control of ContentBox through environment variables and settings
- You can control everything in ContentBox through configuration instead of going through administrator
- Great for deployments, and great for testings
- Automatic session distribution
- Distributed Caching
- Healthchecks
- check if the actual image is corrupt
- if the image is not valid it will restart it for you
- Customizations
- Media manager
- CommandBox managed modules
- Custom ColdBox modules
- Custom ContentBox themes
- Custom ContentBox widgets
- Custom ContentBox modules
H2 Database Engine
DockerHub repository
