NASA achieves data goals for Mars rover with open source software

Railo-based CMS

Railo is an open source developer framework which implements the general-purpose CFML server-side scripting language pioneered by ColdFusion. If you’re familiar with Zend (PHP), Django (Python), or Ruby on Rails, then Railo is their equivalent, except with CFML. It has recently been accepted as part of Jboss.org and runs on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). It is often used to create dynamic websites, web applications and intranet systems. (A shout out to the community for pointing out that the diagram, which we relied on in writing this post, is a bit confusing when it uses the term ‘Railo CMS’. That appears to be a shorthand, as NASA has utilized a CMS based on Railo to meet their content serving needs.)
