That's an interesting question... because Flex is client side, it's the same
as asking about scalable javascript.
So when we're talking about scalability issues and flex, the majority of
issues will reside on the server.  At that point it's the same discussion as
every other web technology... php, cf, apache, iis, mysql, sql server.

Now... the other issue of "scalable flex", would be if your web server can
handle all the requests.  Then you can get into cloud computing stuff...
(s3, ec2, etc...).

Anyways, that's my 2ยข
