State of the CF Union Survey 2019 and how is ColdFusion Even More Alive This Year

The 2019 State of The CF Union Survey is now live. Let's find out the current state of the ColdFusion Union – what versions of CF developers are using, what tools, what development methods and more.

The past year has been an amazing year for ColdFusion and all the CFers out there. I think it's fair to say that it's possibly the best in the last 5 (perhaps even more!) years.

We got Adobe ColdFusion 2018
We saw a new Lucee edition announced as well
Three CF Summit conferences
CF Alive book launched at CF Summit Las Vegas

Now it's time to take that Survey like we do every year. I hope you're excited as I am. I believe that CF is more alive than ever and that 2019 will be an awesome year for ColdFusion and you CF developers, experts, enthusiasts out there.

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.
