Dax Data, local Macromedia distributor and Web enablement specialist, has announced the immediate availability of Macromedia ColdFusion MX 6.1, which extends the product`s unmatched ability to deliver speed, savings and standards to Web application development.
Building on the success of the previous version, ColdFusion MX 6.1 has a runtime improvement of 172%. "This translates into a better end-user experience and reduced infrastructure costs over time. In addition, dynamic e-mail generation has been dramatically enhanced, enabling users to deliver messages more than 50 times faster than previous releases were capable of," says Jeremy Matthews, MD at Dax Data.
"Macromedia ColdFusion MX currently meets the demands of thousands of organisations, giving them a competitive advantage building Internet applications," says Matthews. "This update gives users better stability and reliability as well as substantial performance gains due to increased backward compatibility, improved installation and configuration tools."
The update also offers bundled installation support providing customers with direct access to expert technical assistance.
ColdFusion MX, available in both enterprise and standard editions, has been streamlined as part of this update with the number of options being increased to ensure that the program caters to the needs of all users.
"The new Enterprise Edition provides everything customers need to deliver advanced applications with high performance, security and reliability," says Matthews. ColdFusion MX Enterprise can be deployed as a standalone server, on the bundled version of Macromedia JRun, or on third-party application servers.
"As a result, customers can easily integrate ColdFusion with their chosen environment while increasing security and reliability by isolating applications in separate instances of ColdFusion running on a single server," Matthews concludes.
