Comtaste Training is proud to announce its new training course about Flex 3 development using BlazeDS. The course is the result of several enquiries made by our clients about those topics.
I've worked on the outline of the course and it's ready and I've just published it on the italian section of Comtaste's site (I'm working on the english outline for this training course):

Enterprise Flex Applications: Using Flex 3 with BlazeDS and Java (JEE)

The Flex 3 and BlazeDS course adds to Comtaste's course programs and it is the open source alternative to the Enterprise Flex Applications:Using LiveCycle Data Services and J2EE (Java EE) training course.

The Flex 3 with BlazeDS is a 3-consecutive-day lessons and we're scheduling it in the following three locations: London, Milan and New York City.

Enterprise Flex Applications: Using Flex 3 with BlazeDS and Java (JEE): Overview

BlazeDS is the open source technology released by Adobe and based on Java Remoting and web messaging. BlazeDS allows developers to easily connect to J2EE distribuite (Java Enterprise)architecture and to carry out real time data pushing to Rich Internet Applications created with Flex 3 or to desktop applications created with Adobe AIR. BlazeDS uses AMF format to transfer data in binary mode, a technique that increases the performance of the application compared to XML or SOAP formats. In this course we will illustrate the techniques to install, configure and connect Flex and AIR applications to BlazeDS in Java server logic, and how to exploit the characteristics of this technology.

Training objectives
The final laboratory of this course will allow participants to built complex and interactive Enterprise applications distributed in Java Enterprise JEE architectures.
