Application vs. Applets vs. Servlets

["Richard Dean" <rddean@xxxxxxx>]

I have been experimenting with Java Applications and using Data Queues to
communicate with the AS/400, and the speed has been good.  I was wondering
what other people are doing out there for there business solutions.  After
reading the messages on this list over the last couple of months, I get the
feeling that Applets are probably the slowest and least efficient way to
handle business solutions.  But I know very little about Servlets(which I
believe has to do with Websphere).  I guess my question is what are people
finding to be the most efficient way to develop business applications, with
the best response time?  Also in my case I am looking for something that
does not take a lot of setup by end users.  That is why I like the Java
applications front end, communicating with a COBOL back end on the AS/400
through Data Queues.  It seems to be pretty quick and pretty easy for a
third party with limited knowledge to implement.  But again, I am not real
familiar with all of the options and I wanted some input from other people
who are doing similar things, but in different ways.

Thanks in advance,
Richard
