Ben and Ryan Show Episode 7
In this episode, your hosts Ben Nadel and Ryan Brown are joined by Adobe Product Manager, Charvi Dhoot, and Semify CTO, Brian Sappey. The group discusses the upcoming ColdFusion 2025 release and how Adobe determines which features to include in the release. And as always, the guys go on their many tangents.
Key topics included:
• Feature Development: Charvi explained that ColdFusion development prioritizes user needs, stability, security, and performance, often influenced by customer feedback and industry trends.
• Integration Enhancements: Brian highlighted a feature enabling seamless integration with Microsoft's Azure user store, enhancing security and scalability for enterprise applications. This feature originated from his team's work and broader community needs.
• Plugins and Community Contributions: The idea of a plugin marketplace was discussed as a way to allow developers to share and monetize their ColdFusion plugins. While technically feasible, its implementation depends on community interest and resources.
• Tags vs. Script Debate: A recurring challenge in ColdFusion development involves balancing support for legacy tag-based code with newer script-based implementations, ensuring compatibility while encouraging modern practices.
• ColdFusion 2025 Features: The episode touched on the CSV parsing feature, conceptual compression benefits, and enhancements like streamlined Java object integration. Charvi emphasized the significant effort to address long-pending issues and modernize the platform.
