Have the Flex client poll the server for updates, or use LCDS or BlazeDS which provide push technology.

I can get the program to run fine when I just have one chart, but I'm not sure how to produce multiple images. Here's how it's set up at the moment: When the server launches, a java app looks in the database for chart definitions. For each chart it will have data as well as a publishing frequency (say every 10 minutes or every 2 hours, etc). So for each report I thought I'd launch a thread and have that thread send the data for drawing the chart to the flex app. However in practice, the threads launch the flex app and only one of the charts gets published. How can I get a flex app to draw multiple charts like this? They have to continually update based on the publishing frequency for the chart and I have to make sure that each chart gets drawn. How would you approach implementing this image factory application?
