The presentation that I gave at MAX (and
now linked from my blog http://weblogs.macromedia.com/mchotin)
has a discussion of choices for accessing data.
I also have a discussion in there
(sometime much earlier) about the GZIP compression experiments that some of our
QA did.
The serialization that Abdul is talking
about is for strongly typed classes, our XML deserializer does not currently
map AS-classes to schema types, there is no wsdl2as-like functionality.

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.
