Adobe Flex 2 has been out for a couple of months now, and lots of ColdFusion customers are discovering that the combination of ColdFusion and Flex allows them to deliver powerful and engaging applications easier than ever before.
One area of confusion appears to be the Adobe Flex server: Adobe Flex Data Services. What is Adobe Flex Data Services? What exactly does Flex Data Services allow you to do that you wouldn't be able to do without it? What does this mean specifically to us ColdFusion developers?
My new article Adobe Developer Center article entitled ColdFusion and Flex: Do you need Flex Data Services? explains.
If you have yet to register for MAX, you should do so quickly. Several ColdFusion and Flex sessions (lectures and hands-on sessions) have sold out, and the pre-conference sessions are pretty much full (some so full that the waiting list has closed). If you are thinking of attending MAX,
sign up and pick your sessions immediately!
