title: Large amount of data - what is the best way to send them?
body: <p>we have this scenario:</p>
  
  <p>A server which contains needed data and client component which these data wants.</p>
  
  <p>On the server are stored 2 types of data:
   - some information - just a couple of strings basically
   - binary data</p>
  
  <p>We have a problem with getting binary data. Both sides are written in Java 5 so we have couple of ways....</p>
  
  <p>Web Service is not the best solution because of speed, memory etc...</p>
  
  <p>So, What would you prefer?</p>
  
  <p>I would like to miss low level socket connection if possible...</p>
  
  <p>thanks in advance</p>
