Have Flash Remoting used on a Flashcom server. Flashcom server polls the data source, and when updated, pushes the new information the clients.
The benefit of this is that you have 1 server hitting your datasource vs. 5000. See here for why this rocks: http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/mx/flashcom/articles/improving_ria.html ----- Original Message ----- From: "sanjayd" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, June 27, 2005 2:55 PM Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Flex, Remoting and more Sorry, I mossed the other (latter) postings on this thread. So, I guess, we cannot use xmlSocket to connect FCS to a socketServer...so, the question is: what are the options available to PUSH data to FCS from non-Flash dataSources, for example: a market data feed from reuters ?
