BlazeDS is a java-based remoting and messaging technology that allows web-clients to connect to back-end distributed data easily. BlazeDS creates a middle-layer between clients and back-end services.

BlazeDS creates another layer of abstraction between the client-server communication and therby externalizing backend data services. BlazeDS also allows data push capability for the Flex Framework.
