Intended Audience

Intended Audience

The principal audience for this user guide is professional Web developers who have a 
working knowledge of HTML and Web server environments. The focus is on 
introducing you to Studio’s interface and development tools. 

Introduction to the ColdFusion 4.5 Web Application Server

The ColdFusion 4.5 release focuses on fundamentals — the fundamentals of delivering 
your e-business: faster development, better reliability, enhanced scalability, expanded 
integration, and stronger security.

At the center of the ColdFusion 4.5 release is an application server platform that's been 
highly optimized with new functionality and native support for UNIX. As a result, your 
e-business systems will run better and do more. With this release we're launching a 
new edition of ColdFusion Server for Linux so you can take advantage of the reliability 
and performance of the hottest new Internet server operating system.

While optimizing the core server, we also enhanced fundamental features including 
email integration, server-side FTP and HTTP, advanced security, scheduling, and 
database connectivity — again giving you more reliability and new functionality.

The focus on fundamentals extends to new features. As part of a broad new 
commitment to Java, ColdFusion 4.5 has a range of new Java integration options from 
Java CFXs to Java Servlet support to Java object and EJB connectivity. In ColdFusion 
Studio 4.5, we added new tools to make you more productive including a flexible new 
project architecture that makes managing and deploying complex Web applications a 
snap. On the server, we focused on reliability, performance and security with features 
such as service-level fail-over, Cisco Local Director integration, and OS security 
integration.

Whether you're revolutionizing your company's HR operations, building the next 
generation of your firm's global intranet, or launching the next killer .COM company, 
you'll find the speed, scalability, connectivity, and security you need in ColdFusion 4.5.
