SOTR – Day 2 – Keynote, Railo/JBoss
Railo & Redhat? giving keynote.
Railo joins JBoss.org and goes entirely Open Source – that’s the announcement.
Railo 3.1 Enterprise not open sourcing due to bundled apps – cfdocument, server administrator, Fusion Reactor, Fusion Debug. FusionDebug to be rewritten to support Railo.
Rail 3.1 – Pro and Community merged. No restrictions in use. Unlimited web contexts, admin console (oops, OpenBD!). FREE! Distributed under LGPL2. Redistribution allowed. Support from Railo community.
JBoss downloads, AS – 7,909,747. Hibernate 3,0392,504.
Railo on steroids..integration of Railo with hibernate, JBoss Cache and JBoss Clustering!
<CFDATA /> (only an idea of a tag name!!!) transparent persistence, pk gen, oo query language, j2ee integration, performance, dual layer cache.
JBoss Cache sounds really cool – cachedwithin used in cluster, action would be performed once per cluster….not per server.
JBoss clustering provides, fail-over, replication and load balancing out of the box! Automatic ‘dancing’ of servers together, they just find each other – zero config!
What else, ESB (SOA Platform) JBPM (Workflow engine) Messaging (JMS broker) maybe….
This is all great news for CFML! Adobe, your turn next

Just to be clear:
You say “Enterprise not open sourcing”, but bellow you talk about gain with JBoss Cache and Clustering.
But, isn’t clustering a feature of Railo Enterprise?
Thanks
yeah I’m still a little grey about what is going to be OS – talking to Gert a few minutes ago it’s all going to OS in October – after they’ve worked out a few licensing issues with some of the libraries they are making use of in the product.
If i see if him around this afternoon I’ll get some clarification.
Hi all,
in fall we are open sourcing Railo community which will be a merge of the community and the professional version. The enterprise will follow as soon as we have sorted out some of the license issues with the libraries we only use in the enterprise version.
Check out the blog at jboss.org or at http://www.railo.ch/blog for details to follow.
