AFCS : Gearing Up for MAX

By Nigel Pegg on July 14, 2009 2:52 PM | 1 Comment

That special MAX feeling is in the air, and our team is getting ready to jump into the monkey cage yet again. We're working like crazy on a few different fronts - getting some announcements ready, working with some customers to have them show off what they've built, and of course, planning a variety of MAX sessions to help developers learn more about AFCS. Want to do real-time presence, P2P audio/video, file sharing, messaging and synchronization, from the comfort of your own Flex apps, with no need to do your own hosting for it? Here's a breakdown of sessions we're planning :

  • “Developing Social Flex Apps with the Flash Collaboration Service - a Primer” - I’m taking this one on, and it’s around teaching basic concepts, influencing decision-makers, and possibly showcasing some customers. You'll get an idea of how to get signed up and started with the service, how you can take your app commercial, and a tour of the general architecture. Great for those just getting started.

  • “Creating Real-Time Social Applications with Flex and Flash Collaboration Service”. The esteemed Kevin Hoyt is taking this one, and it's meant as an intermediate-level, code-centric look at full apps. We're going to focus on a few inspirational apps, and break down the thought processes in building them.

  • “Building Flex Collaboration Components”. Mr Ryan Stewart, of Interwebs fame, is presenting this one. This will be focused on devs making their own AFCS components. Don't like our Chat Pod? Make your own! Good for folks already comfortable with the Flex Component life-cycle, into modularity, and who want to understand the component model involved in our real-time framework.

  • “Real-Time Collaboration Deep Dive: Using Adobe Flash Collaboration Service”. I'm also doing this one - This is a Bring-Your-Own-Laptop for the most hardcore, people looking to do deep server integration with their AFCS apps. I’ll be covering external authentication with your user databases, Server-to-Server APIs, and the full range of integration options from both the client and server. This one's an hour and a half, and will really show the power of AFCS, as you'll come out of it with your own app working against the cloud

    • Lots of exciting stuff! Sign up and register for these sessions, space is always limited.
