ColdFusion Keynote: Building the Agile Web Since 1995
The document discusses partnerships between ColdFusion and independent software vendors (ISVs). It profiles one such partnership between Adobe and VSR Systems, a software company that provides two ColdFusion-based business solutions: an ERP system and a warehouse management system. The ERP system has been in use for over 15 years by over 120 brands, processing $650 million in annual sales. The WMS also services logistics companies. ColdFusion was chosen as it allows for reduced development time compared to other languages, enabling the company to focus on code design.
