The short answer is yes it does matter if you use Entity or Session Beans Here is a reprised version of a conversation from Scot Bellamy response to Patrick Lighbody on this topic As for the last question, should entity beans be used, it depends on what the bean is needed to do. One valuable use

Equally,  unless I'm behind on the apache/tomcat specs,  EJBs cannot be implemented on apache/tomcat.   The only beans you can run on apache are normal java beans and not ejbs.   Jonathan"THOMAS, JAI [AG-Contractor/1000]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Martin,That is a true comparison of session vs ent

It doesn't matter what type of ejb it is. Your web service is only an access point to a set of business functionalities. If your service invokes a session bean, whatever connection pooling mechanism you have in place would work in the same way it is acessed via a web interface (or anything else
