News about an addition to the Flex development family has been in the lime light since last week. It has been popularly said that the new addition is sure to make Flex much more affordable and give it an edge over AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML). Without creating further suspense here we disclose (for all the Flex developers reading) that the new member added to the family is Flex 4.
Adobe has included a few free features in Flex 4 like the customized Flex SDK for easy Flex development but the real change is in the price. With this the company aims to reduce the price of simple flex deployments. Flex developers can now deploy Flex application to a single CPU for absolutely no cost with the help of Web Services and XML. Earlier single PC deployment of Flex application would cost the user $15,000. This initiative as per the company representative is intended to increase the number of Flex users around the world.
“The inclusion of Flex 4 as a Flex development platform with its own SDK will revive the rich internet application development niche. Less expensive Flex with better performance is something we all have been looking forward to. With this we aim to serve our clients even better” commented developer at Flex Development company, iFlexweb.
Recent version also improves ability of Flex to manage data between the client applications and the server. At times when payloads are in small quantity and data is not accessed frequently connections to the server can be established using web services and XML features of Flex 4, Flex development platform. It has features which are designed to be used for establishing a link between data and presentation layer. Things that Flex can do but AJAX cannot do are management of data powerfully, rich graphic and media, data graphing and charting.
iFlexweb has already strengthened its foot in the Flex development niche and aims to deliver better services using the latest Flex 4 version with some outstanding features.
