I'm not sure how often your data MAY change, but looking at the above explanation, why don't you simply use small piece of code for checking data stored in the database? You can add a column with timestamps, which can be checked, for example, every five minutes. I know it's not too elegant solution, but I'm sure it saves you the overhead, added by JMS-based solution.
