Since you are starting off, I suggest you start small. Just build basic apps get them to run inside JBoss/Tomcat. Once that works then use the <mx:RemoteObject/> tag to communicate with a simple Java class and see if it does what you except, then get more complex from that.

I have lots of questions so I'll first say I appreciate you taking the time to read and potentially responding to them. I'll be posting them separately. === We're creating a brand new application from scratch using Flex as our front end. The back end will consist of JBoss and some relational DB. I have lots of experience building typical web apps using JSP, Struts, etc., but zero experience using Flex. In our app, I picture Flex as being simply the replacement of JSP pages, i.e. the front-end. - What's the best practice to communicate from Flex to an app server like JBoss/Tomcat? (flex must talk to the Java world) Unfortunately, I know that I do not want to use the Flex data services purely for financial reasons. I have experience in Java, J2EE, EJBs, etc. so I'm confident I can build the service that flex would talk to.
