Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Just remember--anything manual can be automated
If that's the only con to sockets (and I'm inclined that way), sounds like a winnah.
New Well, that's what I meant.
As is, we will have to write the code that manages the state of the socket connection.

I think there's a little bit of "web services are cool, let's use those" going on here as well... personally I don't see any advantages if you are in control of both endpoints of the connection.

New I lean towards sockets as well
I haven't tried JMS but socket programming in Java is pretty straightforward.

New Remember there's C++ on the other end.
One of the (muddled, 2nd hand) reasons for the HTTP transport was a desire to have the threads managed for us.

New Name one:
Webserver that manages Threads nicely...

Solaris with Weblogic and/or Apache2 (and recent versions only) are about the only ones I can think of that work well in that respect. But given most things are not thread safe right now...

IIS claims Full threading support... but only if everything is being done with the webserver machine. Apache2 does do threading, but so many thing these days are NOT multi-thread safe *YET*. Prolly won't be for a few years yet.

Weblogic... well if you dare delv into that one... go for it.

IIS. Based on from whom the suggestion is coming.
