Adobe Flash no iPhone, iPad e iPod Touch

Depois de tanta espera foi liberado finalmente um noticia que vai agradar muito aos usuários de iPhone e iPad. Agora será possible visualizar aplicações em flash no iPhone e no iPad graças a um novo lançamento da Adobe que foi chamado de Adobe Flash Media Server 4.5 onde não haverá a necessidade do produtos da Apple virem com o suporte para o Flash, o que já foi motivo de muita briga entre as duas marcas.

Com essa nova tecnologia (Adobe Flash Media Server 4.5) os aplicativos em flash serão “executados” nos servidores da Adobe e reenviados depois de processados para os gadgets, o que deixa muitas duvidas ainda em relação a sua velocidade de resposta e problemas recorrentes a essa nova forma de utilização.

Preço e Disponibilidade

A venda do pacote completo do Adobe Flash Media Server está saindo por $4,500 no exterior e o serviço apenas para streaming, ou seja, apenas para visualização está saindo por $995, mas esse preço ainda vai sofrer alteração de acordo com a própria Adobe.
A compra já pode ser feita através do site da Adobe.

Premium Video Streaming with Flash Media Server 4.5

Flash Media Server 4.5 expands on its mobile delivery options with the addition of iOS support and enables content owners to create HTTP content on the fly to reduce costs brought on by device proliferation. New features of Flash Media Server 4.5:

Delivery to iPad and iPhone enables businesses to use the same media and live streams to deliver full adaptive bit-rate experiences to platforms supporting Flash, as well as Apple devices, including iPad and iPhone.
Integrated Content Protection simplifies deployment and reduces infrastructure cost, enabling seamless streaming for advertising-funded online video.
On-demand Stream Packaging eliminates the need to prepare and protect assets ahead of time, reducing complexity and storage costs and simplifying publishing for businesses so they can use one set of source video to reach multiple downstream devices.
Premium Video Monetization and Content Protection with Flash Access 3.0

Flash Access 3.0 builds on Adobe’s strong traction in video delivery by extending support to reach mobile devices. This allows content providers to securely deliver and monetize content with a single back-end workflow, delivering rich, engaging experiences on desktop, connected TVs, Blu-ray players, tablets and smartphones. New features of Flash Access 3.0:

Support on Mobile Devices will include Android tablets and smartphones, as well as other mobile devices, allowing video programmers to leverage the same content delivery, protection and monetization infrastructure to target mobile devices, following the upcoming release of Adobe Flash Player 11 and Adobe AIR 3 (set to be available later this quarter).
Scalable License Delivery and in-band Key Rotation enables Multichannel Video Programming Distributors (MVPDs) and programmers to offer television experiences over IP, whether over the open Internet or on a managed network, at massive scale. With Flash Access 3.0, it is now possible to securely deliver multiple TV “channels” to millions of subscribers with a cost-effective premium content protection solution.
Compatibility with Industry Standards including UltraViolet, an industry-standard, cloud-based digital rights locker system that will allow consumers to create personal virtual video libraries and access them across multiple devices. Flash Access has been approved for use with UltraViolet, set to be released this fall. Flash Access 3.0 and the upcoming versions of Flash Player 11 and AIR 3 will be able to be leveraged by content retailers, service providers and device manufacturers to create full UltraViolet experiences, including playback for the UVVU Common File Format.

Parece que agora os defensores de Android não teram mais o argumento de que estão com a plataforma devido ao fato do iOS não rodar Flash. Esse foi um dos principais argumentos dos defensores da plataforma do Google por muito tempo, mas agora com essa novidade as coisas vão mudar um pouco e quem sabe o mercado de vendas da Apple cresca mais ainda no seguimento de portáteis como o iPhone, iPad e iPod Touch.
