Is there an advantage of using an EAR deployment versus a WAR deployment of
CFMX8 on JRun4? (I know the EAR is recommended)
On our current servers (Windows 2003, IIS 6 JRun4) we deployed CFMX7 as a
WAR.
(We are using JRun clustering for ColdFusion if that makes any
difference).
We will be migrating our CF apps to CFMX8 in which we will be getting new
servers (again Windows 2003 IIS6). I plan to install JRun4, then updater 6
or 7
because we will be using multiple JRun instances for other services.
Are there advantages in using the EAR over the WAR deployment? If not, I
would
prefer to continue to use the WAR deployment because it's a configuration
that
we are used to working with...
