I personally like case 2 better mostly
because of maintenance issues. With RMI you
only have to deal with setting up the rmi registry
which is a one line script. With the servlet to
servlet communication you have to have a servlet
engine which can be time consuming to maintain
whichever engine you choose. I find that I
spend about 3 times longer supporting servlet
engines than I do rmi registry.
