you could create this "application server" and define a new protocol
for transferring the information, etc.
or you could just use http (with ssl?) and apache as a backend
"application server" with almost any web server on the front-end.
(mod_backend for apache is a particularly good way to handle coupling
multiple frontends to multiple "application servers".)
sure, it isn't necessarily buzzword-compliant, but it already exists,
and uses proven protocols and tools.
