What I do in similar situations, such as a web service that gets the top legal news headlines, is to grab those on a scheduled basis in the background and store the results to the local disk. Then, my web page/CFM page just grabs what I have locally. That way, it's quick, it should never pause due to network/Internet issues and is close enough to live that no one can tell.

I would like to use a web service to invoke a function on a remote server, but I explicitly *don't* want my local server to wait for the remote server to complete the action. I just want my local server to send the command and then move on. Is this sort of thing possible? And if so, is it considered an okay idea? Any help is appreciated.
