Develop new classes of applications.
Move beyond HTTP and create groundbreaking, new interfaces to mobile phones using SMS text messaging, IM using XMPP (the emerging IM standard), and other Internet protocols.

Develop faster with Dreamweaver MX 2004.
Become more productive by using the new ColdFusion Extensions for Dreamweaver MX to build applications rapidly.

Achieve new levels of high availability.
Use the ColdFusion Enterprise Manager to create individual instances of ColdFusion, isolating individual applications and administration. Administer ColdFusion programmatically using new Admin APIs.

Deploy on J2EE faster.
Package an application and the ColdFusion runtime into a single Java archive (EAR or WAR) for fast, easy deployment on leading J2EE servers.

Protect source code investments.
Compile CFM files into Java bytecode to distribute and execute without the visible source CFM files being present.

Search with new power.
Boost searching with the latest Verity technology, enabling highlighted search terms, searching within a results set, spelling suggestions, and hierarchical category searching.

Render rich charting.
Produce clean, crisp charts and graphs with over 200 different modifiable attributes to control animation, colors, labels, and more. Include charts and graphs within dynamic business reports.

Get Productive Fast, Build Powerful Applications

Speed up the development process with intuitive, rapid server scripting.
ColdFusion is the easiest and fastest development environment to learn and become productive with. Rapidly build and deploy applications in record time.

Add powerful capabilities easily with integrated application services.
Easily add common, powerful features including full-text searching, charting and graphing, rich forms generation, structured report generation, printable web content, high-performance e-mail generation, and Flash integration—all using powerful, native ColdFusion application services.
