Request for help for an Architecture Decision.
We implement a Messaging PLatform for Voice Applications. Our current platform has 2 Major Components as shown below:- Media Server --- MML/TCP-IP --- Application Server. We want to move to a new architecture for our Application Server where the interaction between App Server and Media Server is as shown below(i.e. based on VXML over HTTP) Media Server --- VXML/HTTP --- Application Server. To achieve this goal we need to implement an VXML Document Server, which will generate VXML (Voice XML) pages based on the business logic Data access layers within the Application server. We have 2 options to implement the VXML document Server:- 1) USing the J2EE presentation tier(i.e. JSP Servlets) 2) Writing our own VXML generation module in C++ based(probably based on the JAVA Servlet paradigm). Our Factors while deciding between the 2 would be as follows:- 1) Performance(This is the key for us, we ezpecially need to know exactly how slow JAVA is as Compared to C++) 2) Integration with our Business logic Data Access Layers.(All our business logic data access is written in C/C++. Hence if we chose JAVA, then we might have to use JNI or make use of TCP/IP to communicate with our different Processes written in C/C++) 3) Ease of Future Change(We want to develop new Application Features Quickly fast). 4) Fast better Development environment. I am a proponent of the use of Tomcat Servlet Container and hence the use of J2EE front end for our module. But I was hoping to get some pointers from you all, just in case somebody might have implemented something similiar or might just have some inputs nevertheless. We are in a time crunch here, as we have to make a decision by next Monday end. Thanks in advance.
