Adobe has announced that it has opened up its Cold Fusion development tool as a cloud computing service.
The company is using Amazon's cloud services, but said that other cloud providers will be considered as a vehicle for spreading the software.
Adobe has released Cold Fusion 9 and also opened up ColdFusion Builder Beta 2 to the developer community. The firm intends to make the software pay-to-use to allow developers to use the code on a pay-per-earn basis.
"Today, with the new cloud-based offering, developers and IT professionals can choose the best and most effective method for their company when deploying rich internet applications," said David Wadhwani, general manager and vice president of the platform business unit at Adobe.
The shift of Cold Fusion to the cloud is major change of policy for Adobe, which has traditionally sold packaged software on a per-user basis.
