Any hosting companies offering CF8 on Linux?

[Bryan Capitano]

Hello,

I run a web design company in Portland Oregon and we're working on a couple jobs that will require CF8. Does anybody know of a good hosting company that runs CF8 on Linux? I can't find one!

Thanks!

According to Adobe, Linux ran slightly slower in response time than did it's
windows counterpart.

http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/whitepapers/pdf/6_1/cfmx61_performa
ncebrief.pdf

We've found that to be the case as well with internal testing.

We haven't tested CF 8 yet however to see if this holds true.

We used to be exclusively a Linux shop until we discovered the support from
Macromedia was SO MUCH better if you were using Windows.

So we switched.  

Haven't had a single stability or performance issue.  We have a client
(http://www.wilton.com) that has 6 of their properties on a single machine,
running MX7 using windows 2003 Standard and we rarely have to do anything
but rotate the logs.

This is a dual cpu machine (about 2 years old now) that averages over 30
requests a second and peaks near 60.

I used to be an OS snob.  Now, not so much.  I'm just a application platform
snob now :)

I echo Viviotech!  Seem like some first rate guys over there.  I will likely be moving my operation over to them towards the end of this year when my current contract is up.  Not my employers operation, my own personal deals, about 2 dozen websites.

Our site needs to use mod_rewrite and .htaccess functionality of Apache to
rewrite URL's.  Maybe we can use an Apache server on windows? But I don't
know how/if the .htaccess functionality ports to a Windows machine?

If you need mod_rewrite and need access to .htaccess files because of
shared hosting apache is probably your best bet. I don't know how likely
you would be to find apache/windows hosts... though there is an IIS
alternative (maybe not an alternative if your using a shared host)...

Ah.  If you need to use Apache, you don't want Windows then :)

It will work; Many people say just fine, but we've run Apache for months one
end without a hitch on Linux, while experiencing different issues on
Windows.

Good luck.

An Apache server on Linux only needs about half the horsepower that a
Windows machine does to achieve the same performance as well.  I just
recently set up a virtual machine with CF8 Updater 1 Beta 3 running through
Apache on Ubuntu Server 7.10 x64.  It runs great and I only needed to
allocate 512MB of RAM for it.

FWIW, We have used CF on Linux since it became available (10 yrs?). It  
has always had a performance advantage.

10 years?  CF hasn't been available on Linux until version 8.  Now, there
has been an open-source alternative to CF available on Linux.  I can't
remember what it was called, but it's been around for a while.  It was not
associated with Adobe or Macromedia though.

Not true, linux has been supported since CF5 if not earlier.  And it has
always performed remarkably well versus windows on any of my dual boot
test machines.

Version 8?   We were running it on Linux in version 4 or 4.5, but I
don't think it had been officially released yet.  I think full support
came out in version 5.

Actually, I still have a legacy machine with Redhat 6.2 running CF 4.51 which was the first version available for linux. A Solaris version had been available for some time before that, though.

Well maybe it was just version 7 that wasn't available on Linux.  I didn't
get involved with CF until then.

ColdFusion has been available on Linux since at least version 4. We did an
article on it in 1999 - one of our first articles on Fusion Authority.

(How's that for a look at the past?)
