Re: [flexcoders] Re: FDS and licensing issues
Chaitanya, Depending on what you are doing with FDS you could more than likely use Red5 in its place. Red5 is now supporting AMF3 with remoting and RTMP sockets. It also does video and audio streaming, which FDS doesn't do. We have been building a few applications using Flex2 and Red5, and so far things have been going well. One thing to keep in mind though, is that Red5 is still pretty new and still under heavy development. At any rate, you way want to look into it as it's an open source solution. I'm one of the leads of the project so of course I'm coming at this with a bias. Just want to clarify that before some people jump all over me for suggesting Red5. Best of luck. -Chris On 2/23/07, Chaitanya Mutyala [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: thanks jayson but my system uses and requires multiple CPU machines. -Chaitanya On 2/22/07, Jayson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: This is copied right from the Adobe download page for Flex and FDS Flex Data Services 2 Express A powerful solution for creating data-intensive rich applications.
