Developing websites and web applications with ColdFusion offers a number of advantages that allow ColdFusion programmers to build highly effective web based applications. This dynamic program does not require a lot of coding such as PHP, JSP, and ASP based applications. The ease of use, high runtime performance and its dependability are among the main reasons why this ColdFusion is such a popular choice among ColdFusion programming professionals as well as ColdFusion development specialists. This application can quickly produce dynamic web based applications that have advanced functionality and features. Prior to selecting a ColdFusion web development company, it is important to ensure they can support this comprehensive application. (more…)

Hello everyone,

We are proud to present our new video explaining the Coldfusion application development services we offer. Enjoy,

Adobe is currently working on ColdFusion 9 (Codename: Centaur). There is no release date set, but the list of potential new features include :

• Ability to code User Defined Functions (UDFs) and ColdFusion Components (CFC’s) entirely in CFScript.
• An explicit “local” scope that does not require local variables to be declared at the top of the function.
• Implicit getters/setters for CFC.
• Implicit constructors via method called “init” or method with same name as CFC.
• New CFFinally tag for Exception handling syntax and CFContinue tag for Control flow.
• Object-relational mapping (ORM) Database integration through Hibernate (Java).
• Server.cfc file with onServerStart and onServerEnd methods.
• Tighter integration with Adobe AIR.

Working With ColdFusion Frameworks

Frameworks can drastically reduce the time frame of your Development Cycles by letting you focus on the fundamental business solutions rather than getting trapped in the nitty-gritty of developing repetitive code. For instance let’s say you are working on an enterprise level online accounting system coded in ColdFusion. Instead of writing tons of code on how to handle transactions with the database and user verifications, you can work on the actual logic of the accounting system because the framework you are working with provides you with all the necessary routines to take care of repetitive but essential tasks.

So basically a framework is like a library of different code routines that you can use as and when you need them, but the big difference is that once you start working under a framework, it basically controls your work flow, and this is not in a bad way. A framework helps you streamline your development process and maintain code so that it can be easily used and customized. (more…)

Are you ready to move on to the next level of web design and user interaction?

There is a paradigm shift in the way people use the Internet and interact on commercial Websites. Total customization no longer remains in the realms of usability, whitepapers, and web design conferences! Adobe Flex makes functionalities feel like a breeze. Here are some examples of Flex enhanced features we can provide:

• Updating data on the webpage without having to refresh the page
• Dragging and dropping items into the shopping cart along with simultaneous recalculation of the cost
• Rearranging items on the webpage according to your convenience
• Changing the look of the website according to your preferences
• Developing and installing the most complex animations and graphics

The greatest benefit of our experience with Flex is that we can create Rich Internet Applications (RIA) that deploy consistently on all major browsers, and Operating Systems, consequently providing a richer experience for your audience. Flex brings real-time interactivity in your existing Applications, and Ecom Solutions can develop and install completely new Flex Applications in a timely fashion!

ColdFusion 8 Update 1 provides developers with 64-bit support for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux, and provides the latest updates to ColdFusion 8. Adobe recommends that all ColdFusion 8 users apply this free update.

Ecomsolutions Inc has been developing ColdFusion applications — e-commerce websites and online content management solutions — for more than five years with an unbeaten track record. There has not been even a single instance of project failure during this triumphant phase of ColdFusion web development. But why web development with ColdFusion and not with some other programming or scripting language such as PHP, Ruby on rails or Python? First of all ColdFusion is amazingly fast; it is so fast that sometimes it seems like magic. It is a language specifically evolved for enterprise level solutions, although it can be easily used — without resorting to an overkill — for smaller websites and applications too. In fact you can use ColdFusion for static web sites too but it is rarely done. It can be easily integrated with any platform from Java to .Net and it supports all Web 2.0 web development features and enhancements such as Ajax and user generated content management. Most of the online content and document management applications are developed using ColdFusion because of its unmatched features.

The web development methodologies at Ecomsolutions Inc are time-tested as well as innovative; sometimes we strictly follow the rules and sometimes we define our own rules in order to deliver the maximum benefit to our customers. As a first step towards delivering world-class online application solutions we have only been focusing on programming in ColdFusion. Other than that our strict quality control mechanism is a self-regulatory system that is set in motion as soon as a new project initiates.

We employ highly modular web development techniques while developing solutions for our customers. Due to a very high efficiency level we are able to minimize the time spent on web development and maximize the output and hence charge a very reasonable rate from our customers. Of course ColdFusion has a great part in it because when you work in ColdFusion coding efficiency is handled by its environment automatically.

Our web development activities are mostly centered around developing highly advanced e-commerce and online content publishing solutions for our customers from all over the world. You can easily say that when it comes to developing e-commerce and online publishing applications we have developed an incomparable expertise during the past five years. We have left no stone unturned trying to understand all the aspects of this great niche.

In our further posts we will be delving more on web development in ColdFusion.
