Adobe MAX 2011 -- Hot Update

Here is the first off the venue hot update on Adobe MAX 2011

Rebecca Staley reports on Adobe's blog:
Well, day one of Adobe MAX 2011 has come; I write this from the break area of the show floor, where I’m sharing a table with several people whom I have never met. This, I think, is one of many things that makes MAX such an amazing experience: everyone comes to this massive convention center in downtown LA, knowing perhaps no one and perhaps a few others from his or her own company. 


Now, only halfway through the first of three long days, people are mingling. They share tech-y jokes and participate in the same “bring your own device” labs, they sit with other strangers at lunch and wander in tandem across the massive showroom floor.

Developers and designers rub elbows while attending demos or watching this morning’s keynote speech – and the energy has been palpable.



We’re all here to learn from each other and be inspired, and the first few hours have been no disappointment.

Flex for Rich Internet Applications

Developers are building custom web applications with Flex technology

Aug. 19, 2011

Adobe® Flex is a software development kit (SDK) used in developing cross-platform Rich Internet Applications (RIAs). There are other frameworks used for developing RIAs like Microsoft Silverlight, .Net Framework and the Ajax platform. However, Flex has become the most popular.

The Flex framework has three main components: Adobe® ActionScript, MXML and Flex SDK, as well as Adobe® Flash Builder. ActionScript is used to run client side scripts whereas MXML is used to manage the interface application's objects, along with Class Library, to develop custom components. The Flex SDK is used as a coding framework for developing Flex applications.

Flex technology has given rise to the development of interactive websites that are gaining huge popularity among people of different interest groups and preferences. Here are few reasons for its high popularity over others:
  • Applications developed using Flex technology run on any browser using Flash player. However, they need Adobe® AIR to run on the desktop
  • Use of Flex allows you to enjoy multimedia effects on the website as it supports 3D animation
  • Flex supports CSS3 and HTML5 and can be easily integrated with technologies like ASP.NET, Java and PHP.
  • Flex has an automated bug-testing feature to eliminate all bugs at an early stage of web development application
  • ActionScript (core language of the Flex application) provides interactivity to the applications
  • Helps in creating online dashboards for webmasters with its rich library
  • Easy to present data through interactive charts and graphs
  • Custom-built components like content rollover and drill-down capabilities can be created for excellent data visualization 
The above are just a few reasons to make it a popular platform to create rich internet applications. Flex developers are utilizing this technology to build customized web applications and successfully creating User Interface controls, charts, formatters, data grids and validators.

There are many web development companies offering flex development services at attractive rates. You can ask for the pricing quotes from a few companies and compare their prices to make it a cost-effective investment for your business. However, quality should not be ignored while making it cost-effective for your business. Hence, you can ask for some sample work to know more about their capabilities before hiring their services. Once you finalize the company for your RIA development, keep in touch with them and ask for the work updates regularly. This way you can see whether your application is being developed as per your requirements.
