Cheng's blog gives an example of how to create a custom resource.

So when is it appropriate to use a custom resource? What are the design advantages?
In my current design, a session bean is calling a singleton to get a helper that performs some HTTP posting of data to a DB.
I certainly could add a custom resource but would this just be a gratuitous addition? I could also create additional session beans to perform the posting.
