Hi,
First, a quick question: The options for communication between applets and servlets are POST/GET, RMI and RMI-IIOP. Any others also? What is InfoBus? -------- Now a bit more specific situation. I have : (machine) ------> (servlet or application) -------> (database) There will be a servlet (or just a java application) which will collect data from a non-Java machine. The machine is busy doing real-time stuff so it can't spent too much time processing this data by itself. This servlet (or application) processes the data and stores them in a JDBC (ODBC?) dBase. Right now I have something working with socket communication between the machine and Java but this would be nicer in CORBA I guess, so I'm thinking of RMI-IIOP. Further, (database) ----> (applets) or (database) -----> (servlet) -----> (applets) With a webbrowser one can view data obtained from the database. This can be done directly (2-tier) or with a servlet (3-tier). If done with a servlet, I can use POST/GET methods or something like RMI. Other suggestions? Thanks a lot, -- Marcel Heemskerk |
