CF8: Cluster session-based ColdFusion Components

[Guest]

Using CF8:

• Is it possible to store ColdFusion components in the session scope when using clustering and session failover?
  
• Is it possible to replicate their state across a ColdFusion MX cluster?
  
  I remember that with cf6 and cf7 it wasn't possible ( http://www.adobe.com/devnet/coldfusion/j2ee/articles/endtoend.html). I think that the CFC serialization is the answer: but I'm not sure.
  
  thanks in advance

My understanding is that CF8 supports CFC serialization now, which implies that CFCs stored in session should successfully replicate across cluster nodes.

Unfortunately I've not yet had the opportunity to test this theory myself (we're still on CF7), but it's a feature we're eagerly looking forward to testing.

Woohoo!, it's about time! :)

Our application uses session-based CFCs quite heavily...so this is a big plus.
