Hi,

sure, you don't need RPC to interface with a Java Servlet (or any other HTTP 
backend).

Conceptually, RPC is not about sending requests and receiving responses. 
Instead, you call remote methods which return. Its a way of talking to a remote 
process (interprocess communication). If all you need is sending a request and 
handling its response, talk plain HTTP.

If you want to use RPC, you may also want to consider JSON-RPC. If you go the 
HTTP way, you may want to familiarize yourself with REST.
