I have an application that is EJB 2 based and runs on top of Firefox database. I have been planning to put it up on a website, but making it available as a service run through an SL storefront might be more fun. Is it possible to interface to an EJB 2 middle tier? Can the application server and database be running on my own server and just accessed from LL?
Thank you!

Since LSL cannot directly interface to RMI or Corba, you'll need to chose an appropriate communications method to interface SL with your middle tier. Usually its a combination of HTTP (for outbound) and XML-RPC (for inbound). See: http://www.lslwiki.net/lslwiki/wakka.php?wakka=communications-peekay

Thanks for the information Peekay. I haven't had a chance to follow up on the URL yet, so maybe the answers to the following questions are there.
What about the question of having it running on my own servers. Is that feasible? Or, alternatively, is it possible to have a dedicated server for this purpose at LL?

Looks like the unofficial wiki is down. You can access that page from a mirror copy: http://rpgstats.com/wiki/index.php?title=CommunicationsThere is also a mirror-aware LSL Wiki Search Tool you can integrate with your web browser, and also the Official LSL Portal (work in progress.) Sorry I didn't see your earlier question before. As you probably know by now, you will need to run your own app server and database, which interfaces to Second Life via the the methods described above. You may want to direct scripting-related questions to the Scripting Tips forum... a great place to hang out when learning about any aspect of LSL programming. There is also a related scripting library full of useful open-source code. -peekay
