Many organizations know they are running a “legacy” application.

What they don’t always know is whether that legacy system is simply old… or actively putting the business at risk.

Not every older application is dangerous. But some are.

The key is knowing the difference.

Below is a simple way to assess whether your legacy CFML or ColdFusion application represents a real operational, security, or financial risk.

1. Are You Running on an Unsupported Ver...

Real-time communication is becoming a core part of modern applications from live dashboards to collaborative tools and event-driven systems. But building WebSocket applications that are secure, scalable, and maintainable can feel complex without the right tools.

If your ColdFusion application feels slower than it used to, you’re not alone.

Pages that once loaded instantly now lag. CPU usage spikes unpredictably. Memory climbs. Users complain. And eventually, someone restarts the server.

Everything looks fine again.

Until it isn’t.

The real problem? Most teams treat performance symptoms — not root causes.

Let’s break down why ColdFusion servers slow down over time — and what actually fixes it.

The Symp...

Building reliable software isn’t just about writing good code it’s about proving it works, every single time. As applications grow in complexity, having a solid, expressive, and flexible testing framework becomes essential.

That’s where TestBox comes in.

We're excited to announce the release of the BoxLang NeoVim Plugin - a comprehensive syntax highlighting solution designed specifically for BoxLang developers working in Vim and NeoVim environments. This isn't a port or adaptation of existing CFML syntax files; it's a ground-up implementation built for BoxLang's modern feature set. Coming soon as well will be our runners, syntax validators, and integration with our LSP for live previews, insights, and much more.

TL;DR: We just released a production-ready starter template that deploys a modern BoxLang application to DigitalOcean App Platform in under 5 minutes—starting at just $5/month. One-click deployment, auto-scaling, automatic redeployments, and zero downtime included.
