You could use Flex's JMS messaging capabilities. Check out the messaging-config.xml and check out the <mx:Consumer> component. I still haven't used the Data Management services with Data Services, but if the new data is coming from a source other than your Flex app, I think using the Flex messaging may be the way.

The data is read-only, so the Flex clients won't be updating it, they just need to display it. When the data is ready to be viewed, I have a Java backend that can send an HTTP post to any endpoint, but I'm having trouble determining which FDS component I should use. Of course, the Flex client can't receive the POST, and I don't mind putting a mini-HTTP server on the same tier as the FDS, but I'm not sure how to notify the clients. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks, Bruce
