Ortus Solutions is proud to announce that one of our newest steps in our Modernize or Die ® movement, announced at Into the Box 2019, is now launched. The Modernize or Die Podcast CFML News Edition launched a couple of weeks back, but now, the SoapBox edition has been launched as well.

Unlike the CFML News Edition, hosted by Gavin and Andrew live on YouTube every week, the SoapBox edition will be more of an interview style format. The first few episodes have been released, with Luis Majano being the guest, talking about the Call to Arms to the community to encourage everyone to step to make our community even better, the History of ColdBox / Ortus Solutions, and the State of ColdBox. We have a lot more episodes scheduled with Brad Wood, Sam Knowlton, Pete Freitag, Brian Klass and maybe more as dive deeper into the ColdFusion Community Members, where we'll discuss their tools, frameworks, modules, workflows, lessons learned and best practices, and much more.

Most importantly, where can you watch / listen to the podcast?

BoxLang AI 3.7: Profiles, Embeddings Defaults and MCP Rate Limiting

Ortus Solutions announces the release of BoxLang AI 3.7. Name a provider, model, params and API key once, then pick it by name for a call, an agent, or a single agent run. Embeddings get their own defaults, MCP servers you build get rate limiting and trusted proxies, and a handful of important fixes land along the way.

BoxLang 1.19.0: See Everything Your Code Does

Ortus Solutions today announces the release of BoxLang 1.19.0, the software productivity platform for building, modernizing and running applications, with developers and AI agents working together. This release is about observability: built-in code coverage and execution profiling, the missing post-invocation events for BIFs, and new query and transaction events, and it pairs with the new BxLens beta, the debug bar and ops console that exposes hotspots and bytecode profilers. It also adds your own global settings in boxlang.json, static method interception, raw binary HTTP streaming and a lot of hardening across JDBC, Java interop and CFML compatibility.
