I think that what he says is related to how he did applications before red5, on fms/fcs.
I mean he probably had 1) frontend (flash player clients) 2) backend - amfphp 3) backend - red5 ( amfphp backend for red5 also) 4) db layer - sql server or something and that when he had to CRUD from a database from the server side actionscript, he had to use a second layer ( in that case, we all used amfphp or other remoting as a middle layer to communicate to sql database) But now, in red5, we have the opportunity to connect directly to a database using jdbc, so what he asks is what is more convenient ? 1) using red5->amfphp(or other remoting)->db server ? or 2) using red5->jdbc->db server ? Is this what you ask Criss ? I was wondering on how to find about these things, and then you place the question :) What do you think guys ? --- Chris Allen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Morten, > > I'm not sure what this has to do with Red5.
