Issue
I am working on a project where I have two servers (tomcat), Server A gives initial snapshot of information from DB(MySQL) to the frontend. Server B to serve updates to server A, both servers need to communicate. How do I connect them? Thank you very much for your help.
Solution
There are many ways two Tomcat instances running on the same host could be set up to communicate with each other. It's quite common to implement a REST service in the "server" Tomcat instance and have the "client" Tomcat instance send the REST request to the other instance. It's common to use either the Jersey or CXF framework to implement a JAX-RS REST service, or you could use the Spring framework to implement a more general web request handler.
