- Railo is seeking ORM / Hibernate Beta Testers
-
Gert announced tonight on Twitter that we're looking to get a pre-release group together to get feedback on Railo's ORM / Hibernate feature. If you're interested in being part of this pre-release group, please contact us. Please note, that the full cfml scripting support is not available yet in Railo, so your existing ORM coding may require some changes.

- Create a scheduled task that runs every minute in Railo
-
So, this is probably confusing to some and I thought I'd try to clear this up. It's possible to setup Railo to run a task every x hour, minute and/or even seconds. You'll want to log into your machine and go to the Scheduled Task page ( e.g.: http://{your server}/railo-context/admin/web.cfm?action=services.schedule )

- Random Friday Railo tip: this.datasource
-
Andy Jarret recently blogged about the usage of this.datasource in Application.cfc. Just goes to show, it pays off reading the patch notes sometimes because it has been there for awhile ( since version 3.1.0.018 ):
[000059] add support for default datasource to cfapplication/application.cfc
Go visit Andy's blog post for more details on how to use this.application. :) Another brief note is that this may be changing slightly in the future, but will always support the ACF Style ( this.datasource = "[some string]" ).

- Seeking ColdFusion and CFML UK based contractors
So this is a bit of a fishing post (at least I am being honest!)
In the next few months Railo Technologies will be working on a number of projects and we are looking to build up a good list of contractors that can work on these projects with us.
I am not posting details of specific jobs of course, but you should have a variety of skills round CFML and CFML development, such as frameworks, ORM techniques, code optimisation and load testing etc.
Please, read carefully now, I am not looking for agents, I am sure you have wonderful contractors and reasonable rates and make coffee to die for but please do NOT contact me.
So, if you are contracting at the moment, or will be looking for contracts in the UK and Europe over the next few months send me an email with your CV, letting me know which areas you enjoy/are good at/ both/ want to get into etc.
IF YOU ARE NOT AN AGENT, email me over at mark at getrailo dot com
Finally, as previously mentioned, I shall be treating emails from agents with the contempt they deserve, so don't ruin your day eh?

- Railo in a Software as a Service environment
Straker, the makers of ShadoCMS and Zoom Flex have put up a great blog posting regarding using Railo in a Software as a Service environment.
They cover four areas such as Scalability, Security, Cost and Updates and even though it shows the Railo Server as a winner it is a overally fairly balanced article from the point of view of their requirements
Check out the full blog post on the Straker Blog
