Using the FMS event gateway

The FMS event gateway provides interfaces between the Flash Media Server 2 and the Adobe ColdFusion server. As a
result, ColdFusion applications and Adobe Flash clients can share data.
Before you use the gateway, become familiar with ColdFusion event gateway principles and programming techniques
(see "Using Event Gateways" on page 1254). A basic knowledge of Flash Media Server is also helpful.
