1 Introducing Flash Remoting  A new technology enabling Flash to dynamically interact with web application servers in a fast, efficient, secure, reliable way.

1 Using xml today Application Server Tomcat, J2EE and so on Flash Player xml xml processing is slow

1 Using Load Variables today Application Server Tomcat, J2EE and so on Flash Player Load variables ok for small amounts of data complex and time consuming

1 Using Flash Remoting ColdFusion MX, JRun 4,.NET And other J2EE application servers Flash Player 6 Flash Remoting Fast Simplified development xml Load variables

1 Flash Remoting Release Themes  Ease of connectivity between Flash and web application servers  High performance connectivity  Ease of testing and debugging  Native application programming language connectivity to Flash

1 Flash Remoting User Needs  Flash Remoting supports a team development model  Flash Developers  Use ActionScript to connect Flash interfaces to server data  Web Application Server Developers  Create services to send and receive data from Flash UIs
