As a former CF dev I laughed out loud when I saw that part - CF+JQuery. But yeah, it's amazingly resilient. The Java bytecode was quite fast and stable.

However there are certainly better tech stacks available. For one, the variable scoping was nightmare-inducing stuff.

Linode had an exploit awhile back, from their CF admin interface.

Lucee and CF runtimes are still activily maintained.
