Adobe Flex 2 is a complete, powerful application development and deployment solution for creating and delivering cross-platform rich Internet applications (RIAs). It enables the creation of personalized, interactive applications that dramatically enhance the user experience, revolutionizing the way people interact with the web.*
Flex has rapidly become the technology of choice for creating responsive, dynamic and visually stunning user-interfaces.

Rich Internet Applications built using Flex have many benefits over traditional technologies:
- Create engaging and compelling user-experiences
- Create more natural, intuitive and interactive applications by using transitions and effects
- Remove the flashing associated with full page loads prevelant on most websites
- Drastically reduces the load on web-servers by only loading the required content
- Flex applications always look and react the same way on every platform, unlike AJAX
- Flex applications request only the information they need from the server, not an entire page, often making them much faster
The Adobe Integrated Runtime(AIR), originally codenamed Apollo, is a cross-operating system runtime environment for building rich Internet applications, using Adobe Flash, Adobe Flex, HTML and Ajax, that can be deployed as a desktop application.*
Now developers can create an application that is delivered over the web, or on the
desktop, using the same technologies.
Mindstorm understands that Flex is only a piece in the puzzle of a successful application. Flex is a great choice for managing user-interaction on the client, but there are many more pieces to the puzzle: What servers should you buy, what operating system should you use, how much bandwidth will you need, which database is best suited to your task, and how should Flex communicate with your servers? It’s important to find a development partner that understands the entire scope of your application and can offer a complete solution. At mindstorm we have a reputation for doing just that. We ensure that your network, hardware, platform, and software architecture all mesh together to achieve your goals. We don’t just deliver good-looking software, we make sure that you have everything you need to succeed.
