TOPIC DESCRIPTION: (provided by the speaker)

ColdFusion 2025 has been out for over a year now. If you're using it are you really taking advantage of all it offers? If you're still on 2023 or earlier, might there be more than the major new features that might entice you?

In this session, Charlie Arehart reprises his classic "hidden gems" approach to finding what's new that you might miss, like he's been doing since CF4.0.1. Some may be modest features that few would use, while others may be pretty big deals but which just don't get much press. There are always FAR more new things with each release than most people realize–usually several dozen, and CF2025 is no exception. And as always, there have been more changes in updates since its release.

Charlie will identify such things, highlighting some, as well as discussing edition differences, pricing, and more, of course pointing to resources for learning more, including his other talk dealing with migration issues, "Migrating apps to ColdFusion 2025 from earlier versions".
