Design Question: Web Services or Servlet?

Thread view: 
Homer - 19 May 2006 14:41 GMT
Hi All,

I need to write an application for retrieving small images (<10k but
volume is high) from a remote server (Internally remote; no firewall
between). So basically I am developing an Image Server. This server has
to be capable of getting request (HTTP?) from other computers, find the
requested image and send it back (Stream?). What is the best way doing
such a thing? I have options of using Web Services, Servlet or any
other technology you can think of. Any suggestion?

Thanks in Advance,

Homer

What about this /isn't/ an exact match for HTTP ?

If the images are reasonably static then you could even use an off-the-shelf
seb server like Apache.
