A few comments. > * Binary transport
So is SOAP when you turn on GZIP compression in your container. And I would argue that binary transmission can be a bad thing too. What if a firewall used on a corporate environment has packet filtering turned on. Does that firewall have an AMF filter and did the firewall admin know what it was? I spent oodles of time working in CORBA. IIOP is a binary protocol and I cant tell you how often we bumped intot his issue in a true distributed application. We actually used to tunnel the IIOP through HTTP a lot to avoid this. > * 50% percent faster then SOAP or Webservice Not true with GZIP turned on. > * Automatic object serialization/deserialization So does XML web services in Flex. -- Dave Wolf Cynergy Systems, Inc.
