The Adobe Flex Data Management Service feature spans the client and server tiers to provide the top-level functionality for distributed data in Flex applications. This feature lets you build applications that provide data synchronization, data replication, and occasionally connected application services. Additionally, you can manage large collections of data and nested data relationships, such as one-to-one and one-to-many relationships, and use Data Management Service adapters to integrate with data resources.
A client-side DataService component, which you can create in MXML or ActionScript, calls methods on a destination configured in the server-side Data Management Service. The client-side component performs activities such as filling client-side objects with data from remote data resources, and synchronizing the versions of data in multiple client instances with the server-side destination. This topic provides a general introduction to the Data Management Service feature.
