BlazeDS can be installed like any other WAR/EAR into an existing J2EE app server. But you will need a J2EE app server to run it. It comes bundled with Tomcat. Also, BlazeDS doesn't provide real-time push like LCDS does. LCDS provides the ability to use RTMP to push messages to the server. BlazeDS supports HTTP polling by the client - at a default of every 8 seconds if I recall correctly. That's good enough for many uses, though. LCDS is very expensive. To learn more about how you'd use BlazeDS for this, read the "Message Service" section off the documentation.
