10.4. Conclusion

The Admin Service and the ActionScript API available to access it are oft-neglected resources. The Communication Application Inspector is useful for introductory purposes and simple debugging, but it does not present many of the useful features and data that you can access via the Server Management API. You should make use of the API to monitor your applications and the performance of your server. You can also use it for more advanced purposes by integrating the Admin Service into your multi-instance applications to perform instance-reporting tasks that otherwise would consume licenses.

In the second half of the chapter, we saw some important sample applications built using the Server Management API, including monitoring a FlashCom Server, gathering statistics on application instances, and managing the log streams. These operations are important for monitoring both the performance and security of your FlashCom Server, topics we'll cover in depth in the last few chapters of the book.
