For the applet - EJB approach, it seems that there could be firewall
problem. Of course, if there is no firewall involved or tunneling is allowed
in the deployed environment, this is not an issue.

Subject: Re: Which architecture is better?
> In my opinion, it really depends on the project and the environment. In
my environment with a lot of developers (32), it makes more sense to build
an n-tier framework to make a clear separation of responsibilities for the
different groups. If you are doing an application by yourself or with one
or two more people, you may save yourself some trouble going from applet to
EJB.

need to go through a servlet so that the servlet can handle any necessary
socket factories to get through the firewall; whereas, if you are building
an internal bulletin board system, the servlet may just serve as an
abstraction layer.

> If you are using WebSphere 3.x, you will probably need to go through the
servlet because the EJBs are going to talk RMI-IIOP - unless applets can
talk RMI-IIOP - I don't know. Most other containers, you would be safe with
the RMI-JRMP.
