J2EE already has web services
EJB 2.1 application servers, such as JBoss 4, already support web services. A function in a stateless session bean can be invoked using RMI and SOAP. Good grief, you don't think I write stateful session beans, do you? It's not good that you have to wait for spec v3 till you don't need a third party code generator but it means the framework is starting to mature. I'd say that means it'll still be viable in 5 years time except the aforementioned pain of separate deployments will prompt a better system.

Choose Life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a fucking big television, choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol, and dental insurance. Choose fixed interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisurewear and matching luggage. Choose DIY and wondering who the fuck you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing fucking junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pishing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, fucked up brats you spawned to replace yourself. Choose your future. Choose life... But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life. I chose somethin' else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you've got heroin?
- Mark Renton, Trainspotting.
