Migrating Your Old Coldfusion Web Applications To Coldfusion Version 10
ColdFusion was a leader in web scripting technology during 1990s and gained a lot of popularity as it allowed technology developers to easily build dynamic web based applications. Though it was the most popular technology then, during the last 10 years or so there has been tremendous competition from other platforms like Dot Net and Java who came up with competitive web scripting languages like ASP.Net and JSP. This created alternative channels to corporations to either maintain their existing ColdFusion applications within ColdFusion or choose to move to other available technologies.
