Servlets Scenario Question

We have two Web Applications in an Application server and Servlet1 in web application1 wants to talk to servlet2 in webapplication2. How can this be achieved?

Can anyone tell me?

Thanks.

What does "talk to" mean in that context? Do you have a specific communication requirement? Or are you just fishing for ideas?

There's no specific requirement actually...Just wanted to know the possible ways it can be achieved.

Thanks.

There are so many threads available on this topic. You may want to search using the Keyword "Cross Context Communication". One way to accomplish this is using URLConnection.

Since the thing being "talked to" is a servlet, would it be fair to assume that the "talking" consists of sending a request to the servlet and receiving the response that it returns? Other scenarios don't really make sense for servlets.
