ColdFusion Is In Our DNA

October 14, 2009 · No Comments

As many of you know, Universal Mind grew from the ashes of Macromedia Consulting.  At the time, there was no talk of Web 2.0, Flex, or anything like that.  We grew our business on ColdFusion.  ColdFusion is in our DNA.  It's always been a part of what we do, but lately I've heard rumblings from the community that Universal Mind has abandoned ColdFusion.  Nothing could be further from the truth.  

While people have been saying that Universal Mind has left ColdFusion behind, we have been quietly building up our ColdFusion talent with some of the strongest people in the community.  Some are names you know, some are names you do not.  Chris Scott, Dan Wilson, Laura Arguello, and Dan Skaggs are just a few of the great ColdFusion developers we have working with us.  

Yes, we build RIAs.  That includes Flex, AJAX, Silverlight, and the technologies that power them, including ColdFusion and Java.  We've got some of the best Java talent around too, but that's a post for another day.  This all means that we can build not only your RIA, but the complete solution from back to front.  When it comes to building ColdFusion back-ends for your Flex application, nobody has more experience than Universal Mind.    

So despite rumors to the contrary, our ColdFusion practice is very much alive and kicking.  What do we build?  Enterprise Class Rich Internet Applications, including those powered by ColdFusion.  After all, ColdFusion is in our DNA.
