Hi,

  I am planning to provide web access to a text search engine using web forms 
and possibly web services. I have few questions. Could some of you help me 
solve these issues....

My backend search engine object is quite large, so I prefer to keep it as a 
static object, which will be started when the server is turned on and survive 
during and after  the "server round trips by the users".

Within the "Page" object I should be able to redirect the requests to this 
static object and recieve "search results"

My questions are:

1. what is the best way to implement this? currently I am thinking about 
three layers: a web form(presentation), a data view object, the static back 
end object.

2.should I implement the static back end object as a windows service?

3. if I am going to get rid of the data view object , how can I refer to the 
static object within the "Page" object.

Thanks in advance
