Coldfusion 10 Enterprise VS Standard Clarification

[Guest]

G'day,

So we have a nice little aplication running on CF10 developer that has been built for approx ~5 users (more as we progress) on the local network (not on the internet) to update product details/quantities/schedule tasks/some pdf manipulation ect. Fairly basic stuff for the most part.

I'm trying to get some clarification on the differences between CF10 Enterprise & CF10 Standard before purchasing. Google is not much help, neither is Adobe Customer Support.

So we currently have the developers edition of CF10 which enables all the Enterprise features however this isn't really helping because we are looking at purchasing the Standard edition (to begin with).

The particular questions I have in regards to "Coldfusion 10 STANDARD" are as follows & require some expanding on other than "Restricted" or "NOT AVAILABLE". Bolded questions  definately requiring some expanding on.

• Gateway architecture
• Data services messaging
• Asynchronous CFML gateway
• TCP/IP socket gateway
• Chaining of scheduled tasks (NOT AVAILABLE)
• Application specific scheduled tasks (NOT AVAILABLE)
  
• PDF document manipulation
  
• ** Support for web socket protocol on server
  

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Hi B0ozer,

This http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion-standard/buying-guide.html should answer all your queries.

Hi,

I've already read that page thanks anyway. I need some expanding on what does "RESTRICTED" mean exactly.

The EFR (Enterprise Feature Router) is single-threaded. For those features running through the EFR, they can only run, one at a time. So if you have a service that is doing PDF file conversion from MS Office 2010 Word and  PowerPoint, it can only create one PDF at a time, whereas Enterprise  edition can multi-thread them and do several at once.

You still get access to use all of these great new features, but if you have two requests trying to use one of these Enterprise features, the second one will queue and wait for the first to complete.

Hi Anit,

Thanks, do you have any information on scheduled tasks & can you see any issues using ColdFusion 10 Standard on our local network with approx 5 users & perhaps 10-20 local users within the next few months.

Thanks for your response.

Not as such . You can probably try and report back on CF Forums, if see an unexpected behavior.
