Right, but Blaze is the best solution you're going to get without buying LiveCycle. There's also WebORB (http:// www.themidnightcoders.com/products/weborb-for-java/overview.html) but I haven't looked into that in enough detail to know if it's AMF (like LiveCycle) or Comet/long polling (like Blaze). There's probably other solutions out there as well but I believe Blaze and WebORB are the two most widely used. > I know if we use web services, it isnt really designed for high-scale > use with lots of users, as far as I know. Number of users wouldn't come into play so much as the fact that the performance of web services is typically going to be a lot slower than binary protocols. Depending on what you're building, however, web services might work perfectly fine. And don't forget you can always have Flex hit a plain ol' CFML page that spits out XML too. > Just wanted to gauge the thoughts of other's. I'm working on the long-delayed HOWTO on OpenBD + Blaze today so expect something very soon, and getting BlazeDS integrated into OpenBD is on our roadmap. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Open BlueDragon Public Mailing List http://groups.google.com/group/openbd?hl=en official site @ http://www.openbluedragon.org/ !! save a network - trim replies before posting !! -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
