Derrick, Your correct, this isn't a simple questions.
1) Why do you want to save variables in session on the server when you can save state in your client? If you really have a business need to save session variables, then look in the section titled "Working with session data" in the BlazeDS Developer Guide. (http://livedocs.adobe.com/blazeds/1/blazeds_devguide/) There is a great example of how to write a remote Java object that will give you access to anything in the request/response streams. 2) Working with query result sets? Simple, just create some type of collection with the result set objects. Define an equivalent object on the AS3 side (make sure you include the RemoteObject meta tag on the AS3 object), and let BlazeDS convert the dataobjects to and from AS3 to Java 3) Frameworks are a function of how big the project is and how many folks might be working on it. If it is simple, you don't need a framework. More complex projects can but don't need to. You can use Cairngorm or PureMVC. I have used both and prefer PureMVC for the reasons that the author states on his web site. I know this is only a start but your Qs cover a bunch of ground. Remoting between Flex and Java is almost brain-dead simple primarily because BlazeDS is written in Java and Adobe has abstracted away all the complexity. Good luck!
