Into the Box 2022 will be hosted in Houston Texas, Tuesday September 6th through Thursday September 8th, 2022. The conference will be at a new venue, the Houston CityPlace Marriott at Springwoods Village.Adobe semi officially announced their dates (still un-official at the time of writing this post) and they were close, back to back weeks at the end of September/October. We felt like the ColdFusion community deserves more in person conferences, ColdFusion Community members need the opportunity to speak and or attend more in person coldfusion conferences. If we left the conferences back to back with only a travel day/weekend in between, it would have been hard for many if not most coldfusion community members to attend both.By changing the dates, it might still be hard or impossible for a lot of speakers, sponsors, and community members, but now those percentages have increased, and both conferences will be more successful, and that will help the community be more successful... and at the end of the day, we all win if ColdFusion wins.Since we moved dates for ITB 2022 - We’re extending the Call for Speaker Deadline - April 30, 2022Since we had to make changes to the schedule, we wanted to make sure every community member had the opportunity to submit their proposal.Into the Box will be live in Houston in September 2022.https://forms.gle/HR1vQf2T5rs8yCZo9https://intothebox.orgAdobe Announced Adobe Developer Week 2022July 18-22, 2022Online - Virtual - FreeThe Adobe ColdFusion Developer Week is back - bigger and better than ever!

While the simplest question may seem to be "how do I do such an update, effectively" (and it really can be quite simple), there's a good bit more to updating the Java (aka jvm, jdk, jre) which underlies your CFML engine.In this session, veteran troubleshooter Charlie Arehart will share his experience helping people deal with this topic for many years, including:Considering, planning the jvm update (what jvm do you have, what can you update to, why should you?)Performing the jvm update (where to get it, how to install it, how to configure CF to use it)Avoiding various potential gotchas when updating the JVMHow to be made aware of new JVM versionsWhether you use CF or Lucee, deployed traditionally or via Commandbox (or even containers), most of the discussion will apply to you.https://www.meetup.com/coldfusionmeetup/events/285508327/?response=3Ortus Webinar - April - cbSecurity: Passwords, Tokens, and JWTs with Eric PetersonApril 29th 202211:00 AM Central Time (US and Canada)Learn how to integrate cbSecurity into your application whether you are using passwords, API tokens, JWTs, or a combination of all three!More Webinars: https://www.ortussolutions.com/events/webinars Hawaii ColdFusion Meetup Group - Using ColdFusion ORMs with Nick KwiatkowskiFriday, April 29, 20224:00 PM to 5:00 PM PDTThe ColdFusion language introduced the concept of ORM (Object Relation Mappings) to allo...
