[Red5devs] OpenAMF and BlazeDS

[Ryan Christensen [drawcode]]

BlaseDS is more of a remoting only soution where Red5 is a direct
implementation of Flash Media Server and all it supports (remote shared
objects, streaming audio, streaming video etc).  Blaze is more like remoting
solutions of the past for Java such as Flash remoting which used to be from
Adobe, Flourine for .net, PyAMF, AMFPHP etc.  These allow direct access to
dlls or java class files or php obects or python object where Red5 is more
of a media and multiuser server.
