- Macromedia (formerly Allaire) ColdFusion offers an easy to learn
development environment for “opportunistic” development projects and
will continue to be targeted as an easy-to-use alternative to JSP.
- ColdFusion remains quite popular worldwide, although its success has
been hindered by its being based on proprietary technology.
- Macromedia has recently announced the next-generation release of
ColdFusion that runs on J2EE and supports integration with .NET. This
is an important step, as the future of ColdFusion depends on the speed
of Macromedia’s alignment with Java and .NET.
- Gartner gives a " plus/minus" rating to ColdFusion.
- Allaire claims that there will be backwards compatibility with CFML
code to the new release.
- We advise enterprises to use ColdFusion for opportunistic solution and
revisit consideration of ColdFusion for systematic use if and when
Macromedia successfully aligns ColdFusion with J2EE and .NET.

- WebGain has significantly improved and expanded the Visual Cafe IDE,
augmenting it with a strong end-to-end development life cycle tool
suite.
- WebGain is well-positioned to offer a single source for many Java
development initiatives that require a more-comprehensive integrated
suite than the IDE offered by Borland.
- WebGain’s entire code base is being rewritten to gain better
integration among tools
- WebGain is a privately funded company with backing from BEA and Warburg
Pincus. Its uncertain financial outlook is reflected in its slightly
lower ability to execute position.
- According to Gartner Research, WebGain may be acquired within 12-month
time frame.

- Small-to-medium-sized enterprises should focus on one platform as the
strategic basis for e-business solutions.
- Large enterprises must support both platforms. Consequently, they should
focus on integration technologies.
- Developers should focus on emerging Web services architectures on either
platform.
- Enterprises should expect staffing and skill shortages for both
platforms.
