Hi Erik, I think you're on the right track there with REST services through tapestry-resteasy. It's really easy to set up and it provides you reading (using GET method) and writing (using PUT or POST) capabilities. Regarding the issue of these methods being publicly available is unavoidable as they must be public in order for the other app to communicate with it. Thus, as Thiago suggested, some authentication must be involved. Unless those two apps are residing on the same machine which would be a different issue...
