I like to have a simple "Settings" or "Config" table in the database, having just VARCHAR "name" and "value" columns, and a simple Tapestry IOC service that looks up and caches the values (either lazily or at startup time). Another option is to have the settings in a property file (outside the war), of course, but on the other hand having them in the database makes it easier to later create crud interfaces for those that may need to change at run time.
