If it's important that every packet reach the server, JMS using XMLMessage
would probably be best, so you didn't have to worry about reconnection,
retransmission etc. in the case of network problems. If not (and it doesn't
sound like it, sensor data like this is typically interpolated at the end
anyway), a direct data stream over TCP, or even just UDP packets with the
sensor readings, sounds like the easiest solution.
