Webinar - ColdFusion for the Next Decade – All about the Buzzworthy ColdFusion 2020
January 16th, 2020 - Presented by Rakshith Naresh - Product Manager for ColdFusion and Captivate Prime Content Catalog
One of the reasons for ColdFusion’s success right from its inception is that the platform has been able to pivot at regular intervals to remain relevant for the future. There are very few technologies that have managed to stay in the game for so long and that is something all of us in the community are proud of. ColdFusion 2020, slated to be released next year, is going one such pivotal release in the history of ColdFusion. The vision for ColdFusion 2020 goes like this:
“To be the modernized platform of choice for building cloud-native microservice applications with absolute focus on ease of use without getting locked to a particular cloud vendor (multi-cloud).”
Attend this session as the Product Manager for ColdFusion unravels every piece of ColdFusion 2020 that leads to the overarching vision.

Blog - Pete Freitag - Searching for files by file name on Mac or Linux
Have you ever had to find a file by a file name or file extension? Sure you have! Here's how I locate a file when I'm using a Mac or Linux shell.

Blog - Ben Nadel - Snapshotting ColdFusion Component State In Order To Find Memory Leaks In Lucee CFML 5.3.3.62
A couple of years ago, I wrote about a "Snooper" component that I created that would allow you to peek into the private scope of your ColdFusion component state in order to try and find memory leaks. That approach worked. Sort of. But, it was clumsy and hard to use. Then, the other week, while listening to the Modernize Or Die podcast, Brad Wood described a ColdBox module that he created that would snapshot component state and then compare those snapshots over time in order to find memory leaks. Brad's solution sounded much more elegant than my own; so, I wanted to try and build off of his snapshotting idea, but adapt it for a really old ColdFusion application that has no framework. Here's a breakdown of what I came up with in Lucee CFML 5.3.3.62.

Blog - TeraTech - 3 Steps to Establish a Reliable Recovery Plan for Your Next ColdFusion Project
Backups and recovery plans are the fire extinguishers of the tech world. If you need one, you better hope it works. You don’t want a spreading fire to be your reminder to check if the extinguisher is charged and ready to use.

Blog - Ben Nadel - Depth-First vs Breadth-First Tree Traversal Using A While-Loop In Lucee CFML 5.3.3.62
As part of my post yesterday on how I sometimes replace recursive algorithms with loop-based algorithms in Lucee CFML, I mentioned that the algorithm incidentally shifted from a depth-first strategy to a breadth-first strategy. In a follow-up conversation that I had about the post with fellow InVisioneer, Kevin Conway, he mentioned that, if I wanted to, I could maintain a depth-first strategy by changing the way that I am queuing-up values for subsequent inspection. Given that this fact was not obvious to me, I wanted to quickly look at how the queuing approach changes the order of traversal. To explore this, I'm going to walk the nodes of an XML document in Lucee CFML 5.3.3.62.
