Bean in application scope

I have a situation where all users need (only read, no write) to have access to the same information.
My solution is to add the needed info to a bean and stuff it into the application scope, this way I don't need to stuff the bean into each request or session. However I also need to refresh this information at regular intervals. I'm worried that I may step on the object just when a user is trying to access this object, ie, it is not synchronized.

Is my initial solution correct for the situation and if so how would I take care of the synchronization issues.

TIA

Not really a Struts issue.

Synchronization is a topic well-covered on the web and in other JavaRanch forums.

Thanks David. Thought as much when I submitted, but put it out here since I'm using struts and its a web app. With the application scope. So put it in the java in general section then ?

I don't know which forum would be best; I really only hang out here in Struts.

heh.. ok. Thanks
 
I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
