Hi,
I've to devlope a webapplication where i need to start a service when the application gets deployed. This service will listen to a perticular port for incoming connections from clients, creates sockets on request each client will send data through sockets and this data should be stored in database. here the clients number requesting for connections will be very high [min 400 clients/second]. The client is a hardware device which is programmed in C. This C program will try to create a socket to ther server. For this it'll need the server name/IP and port number.

Can any one suggest which technology suites for this application!

Regards,
Rakesh

It depends on your communication protocol. If you are using a standard protocol to communicate with your hardware, you may have a chance to find a library to do some infrastructural tasks. But having a dedicated protocols, means no one can help you doing this and you shoud use Java Socket API directly. Of course using a JNI implementation of Socket API may be helpfull to acheive a higher performance.
