You could also put the properties on a http server and having the beans load
them via a URL. This has the following advantages:
1. Doesn't violate the EJB spec. (At least the last time I checked).
2. Allows for dynamic reloading of properties without redeploying.
3. Provides a means of supplying read only data without storing in a database.
