Question

question about getting a coldfusion license for single application

We have two Coldfusion 9 developer edition licenses. One is used for some Coldfusion development work. The application(built in Coldfusion and Flex) will be deployed on a server and the application will be used concurrently by some 250(maximum) users. Can we use one of the developer editions of Coldfusion on the server(which will be deploying that application) or do we need the standard edition of Coldfusion?  I don't think we would need the Enterprise edition as it is only a single application and we are not in a clustered or virtualized environment.

Can someone please clarify?

Thanks

    You are not allowed to deploy production applications on a developer license. Whether you need (or want) Standard edition or ZEnterprise edition depends on many factor,. load, platforms, deployment architecture etc. and it is really hard to say something about that with the limited information you have provided. If you feel omfortable with Standard edition, go for Standard edition.

    Thanks for the reply.

    Load will be maximum of 250 users concurrently accessing the application. Platform is a Windows Server 2008 on a HP server and the deployment architecture will be somewhat "customer site" by the way i understand deployment architectures from the link at http://www.bredemeyer.com/pdf_files/Chapters/Hohmann_ch07.pdf

    The application is a web-based application where the end users will be entering a URL in their browser, the application will be authenticating them and then the users can use it. I am unsure if that blurs it with the Transactional(web service) deployment architecture described at http://www.bredemeyer.com/pdf_files/Chapters/Hohmann_ch07.pdf

    Can someone now offer more suggestions?

    Thanks
