My client is a very small state bureaucracy with no real technical staff
and no real IT staff. The easier I can make this for them the better.
I just thought that Tomcat or any other production level server would be
overkill. They will have one environment, Live, that's it.
There won't be any Dev, QA environments at all. I mean this
web-services just has to pull and push data from a single Access database.
More likely they will have one user at a time do a sync to the back-end
Access database.
Thanks!

Hi Thilina, thanks for the information.
I checked with the client, and it seems there might 2-3 concurrent
users
at a time, certainly 12 would be the absolute most if all 12 employees
decided to hit the web-services at once.
So, I think Axis2, standalone would be the best bet. I'll certainly
look at SimpleAxisServer to start ... and then I'll add to it.
Is there any reason not to use Tomcat or any other production level
server?
I belive for any production envirionmet it is better to deploy axis2
inside such a web server.
Amila.
Thanks again for the help.
