application_development thread: App-to-app connection


Message #1 by "Ron Lim" <ronlim@b...> on Wed, 19 Feb 2003 03:49:02
Hi,

I'm working on a web app that will collect messages forwarded by another 
web app over the Internet via HTTP Post. I'd like to know if there are any 
other alternatives than HTTP Post? I read something about APPC, program-to-
program connection and those sort of things. Are these more relevant to 
the application layer than, in the case of HTTP Post, the transport layer? 
In terms of performance, reliability and security, it's HTTP Post good 
enough?

I rather new to this app-to-app connection and so would appreciate if you 
can pardon my ignorance here.

Thank you.


Ron.
