This week's ColdBox Connection will be our first hosted by a ColdBox Community Member! The ColdBox Team is stepping back give Ben Laube an opportunity to help remind us of the basics as he presents "Introduction to ColdBox".

If you have been thinking about getting started with ColdBox and wanted to know the easiest way to get started this presentation is for you. Ben will start without any CFML engine installed and take us from Installation to Application in about twenty minutes. This presentation will focus on getting started with ColdBox 3.0 and Railo Express Edition.

Join us Thursday July 21 at 10AM PDT / 1PM EDT to learn how to get started with ColdBox. Connection information can be found here: http://www.coldbox.org/media/connection

Reactive vs Proactive ColdFusion Support: Why Waiting for an Outage Is the Most Expensive Strategy

Many ColdFusion environments operate in a reactive mode without realizing it.

Everything seems fine… until something breaks.

A server crashes.

Performance drops suddenly.

An integration stops working.

A security audit reveals missing patches.
