HTTP request->Standalone App->Apps running on Tomcat

[Gary Zhu <gz...@timeicr.com>]

Hi all, 
 
We are implementing an IVR application using VXML. Here is the scenario:
When a call comes in, the IVR platform sends a HTTP request to the
application running on Tomcat. What we want to do is to have the IVR
platform send HTTP requests to a Standalone Application which performs
some intelligent logic processing, and then forward/redirect the HTTP
requests to the corresponding applications running on Tomcat. Does it
mean the "Standalone Application" will have to be a light HTTP server? 
 
Any advice/suggestion is much appreciated.
