It's hard to pick one platform for so many applications without knowing any of their details. That said: - It's easy to move from just tomcat to JBoss with embedded tomcat if you find yourself needing the JBoss features like EJBs. I like to keep things as simple as possible, so I'd start with just tomcat. - There seem to be a number of successful applications running Axis (http://ws.apache.org/axis/) or XML-RPC (http://ws.apache.org/xmlrpc/) on tomcat with various clients, including web, traditional application, and Java Web Start clients. This is a flexible approach as your clients can be nearly anything, including your own tomcat servers which are in turn serving your users.
