<longdescription lang="en">
PyAMF provides Action Message Format (AMF) support for Python that is
compatible with the Adobe Flash Player. It includes integration with Python
web frameworks like Django, Pylons, Twisted, SQLAlchemy and more.
The Adobe Integrated Runtime and Adobe Flash Player use AMF to communicate
between an application and a remote server. AMF encodes remote procedure
calls (RPC) into a compact binary representation that can be transferred
over HTTP/HTTPS or the RTMP/RTMPS protocol. Objects and data values are
serialized into this binary format, which increases performance, allowing
applications to load data up to 10 times faster than with text-based formats
such as XML or SOAP.
AMF 3, the default serialization for ActionScript(TM) 3.0, provides various
advantages over AMF0, which is used for ActionScript(TM) 1.0 and 2.0. AMF 3
sends data over the network more efficiently than AMF 0. AMF 3 supports
sending int and uint objects as integers and supports data types that are
available only in ActionScript(TM) 3.0, such as ByteArray, ArrayCollection,
ObjectProxy and IExternalizable.
