Hello, With reference to our topic few days ago and responses there on we are converging on PHP as server side technology. Within that we shortlisted two options
1> CakePHP + CakeAMFPHP - Adapter classes to make AMFPHP work seamlessly with CakePHP. This way, you can leverage your productivity by using CakePHP features on the server side to build your application server and use CakeAMFPHP to send data back and forth Flash/CakePHP. You can also have a HTML version of your Flash app without headeaches. 2> WebORB - WebORB for PHP is server-side technology enabling connectivity between Flex and Flash Remoting clients and PHP applications. WebORB for PHP can be installed into any PHP5 application to expose PHP classes as remote services. The product provides a complete implementation of the Adobe's AMF0 and AMF3 messaging protocols and thus supports any Flash Remoting or Flex client. What we need a fast performing, easy to understand and code and easily maintainable data abstraction layer. We are prefering to ability to change backend database to one of Firebird, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle and MS-SQL. Similarly ability to embed business logic in that layer. So whatever study we had done so far we are tilting towards CakePHP but WebORB is also equally competing. We are not able to make up or Mind so can somebody guide us on this ? Thanks and Best regards Raja
