Move ColdFusion to cloud-native Java, Node.js or .NET, de-risked by AI.
Licensing costs and scarce CFML skills trap many intranets and government portals on old ColdFusion versions. Paradym Next reads the templates and components, recovers the business logic and rebuilds it on a modern stack with a React or Vue 3 front end: in months, with your engineers approving every stage.
ColdFusion licences keep rising while the pool of CFML developers keeps shrinking.
ColdFusion made it quick to build data-driven web applications. Years later, many of those applications are business-critical, running on old server versions that are expensive to licence and hard to staff.
Licensing cost
Per-core server licences make scaling and cloud hosting expensive.
Developer scarcity
Few engineers choose CFML today, so every leaver is hard to replace.
Version lock-in
Upgrading old ColdFusion versions is risky, so applications stay on releases that are out of support.
Business rules live in templates, CFCs and queries that grew page by page. Recovering and documenting them is the basis for a rebuild that keeps every workflow intact.
How our AI-powered modernisation engine works.
Four stages take your ColdFusion application from undocumented code to Java Spring Boot, Node.js or .NET with React, Vue 3 or Nuxt front ends. AI agents do the reading, mapping, writing and testing. Your engineers approve every stage.
Automated discovery and code parsing
Next parses your CFML templates, CFCs, custom tags, scheduled tasks and SQL and extracts the business rules, data flows and integrations inside them. Every rule is traced to the code it came from, so nothing drifts in translation.
AI-assisted architecture blueprint
Agents map each module to clean target patterns: Spring Boot, Node.js or .NET services, REST APIs, React, Vue 3 or Nuxt front ends and managed cloud databases. Your architects review and approve the blueprint before any code is written.
Automated refactoring
From the approved blueprint, Next generates production-ready code for Java Spring Boot, Node.js or .NET with React, Vue 3 or Nuxt front ends. It consolidates duplicated logic and removes dead code, and your engineers review every change.
AI-driven regression testing and validation
Generated test suites run the old and new systems on the same inputs, validating 99% functional equivalence before deployment. Any difference goes to your team to resolve.
What AI acceleration changes.
Compared with a standard manual migration of your ColdFusion application.
less development effort than a standard manual migration.
faster upgrade and migration cycles.
lower operational and cloud infrastructure overhead.
AI does the heavy lifting. Your engineers make the decisions.
For a CTO or CIO, the risk in a rewrite is not speed but correctness. Human review is built into every stage, so AI output never reaches production unchecked.
Traced to source
Every extracted rule and generated module links back to the ColdFusion code it came from, so reviewers can check it line by line.
Human approval gates
Discovery, blueprint, code and release each need sign-off from your people. Nothing moves forward on AI output alone.
Equivalence testing
Old and new systems run the same test cases side by side, validated to 99% functional equivalence before deployment.
Governed AI
You choose which models are used and where they run, and every agent action is recorded for audit.
