Thrift and HTTP

[Marlon Pierce]

I'm curious if anyone has looked into running Thrift over HTTP.  We are 
using TThreadPoolServer for the server and TServerSocket for transport 
in AiravataAPIServer.java, but we're being encouraged to look into HTTP 
bindings for publicly distributed SDKs.

Using HTTP would allow us to put the server behind an Apache HTTPD 
server (for example) and to take advantage of lots of existing protocol 
implementations.
