About Flash Communication Server

Macromedia Flash Communication Server MX, the new platform for interactive personal

communication, integrates Macromedia Flash MX multimedia with live audio, video and data

streaming over networks, provides a system for storing recorded audio and video streams and

shared data objects, and enables the real-time sharing of synchronized distributed data among

multiple clients. This technology unites communication and applications, providing audio, video,

and data streaming between Macromedia Flash Player 6 clients.

The Flash Communication Server incorporates a number of features that support and enable the

creation of next-generation communication applications. In particular, the Flash Communication

Server:

• Provides an efficient, high-performance runtime for executing code, content and

communications.

• Integrates content, communications, and application interfaces into a common environment.

• Provides powerful and extensible object models for interactivity.

• Enables rapid application development through components and re-use.

• Enables the use of web and data services provided by application servers.

• Embraces connected and disconnected clients.

• Enables easy deployment on multiple platforms and devices.

Overview of Flash Communication Server architecture

The Flash Communication Server platform is made up of two parts: the server provides the

means of communication, and a Flash application (a SWF file that runs in Macromedia

Flash Player) provides the end user’s interface. You use the Flash MX authoring tool as your

development environment to create applications that use Flash Communication Server services.

Server-side scripting enables flexible control of shared state information and provides the logic for

mediating real-time interactions among multiple users.

The technology in Macromedia Flash Communication Server MX enables the capture of client

audio and video streams. When creating applications, it is your responsibility to comply with all

applicable laws, rules and regulations and to inform the user of privacy rights and your policies in

situations such as when the application transports audio or video data across insecure channels or

when video data is being recorded for publication. For an example of adding user notification to

your application, see “Adding a privacy module” on page 60.
