Servlet pairing for isolation of the retrieval and rendering of data

A system for using servlets to isolate data retrieval from data presentation formatting in a computing environment having a connection to a network, comprising:

• a client request;
• one or more data servlets, wherein each of said data servlets comprises:
• means for receiving said client request;
• means for retrieving data from a database, wherein said retrieved data is located using said client request;
• and
• means for formatting said retrieved data into a first data stream;
• and one or more rendering servlets, wherein each of said rendering servlets comprises:
• means for receiving said first data stream, responsive to means in any of said data servlets for sending said first data stream to one of said rendering servlets;
• means for parsing said received first data stream;
• means for formatting said parsed data into a second data stream;
• and
• means for returning said second data stream as a response to said client request.

A method for using servlets to isolate data retrieval from data presentation formatting in a computing environment having a connection to a network, comprising the steps of:

• receiving a client request at a first of one or more data servlets;
• retrieving data from a database, wherein said retrieved data is located using said client request;
• formatting said retrieved data into a first data stream;
• sending said first data stream from said first data servlet to a first of one or more rendering servlets;
• receiving said first data stream at said first rendering servlet;
• parsing said received first data stream;
• formatting said parsed data into a second data stream;
• and
• returning said second data stream as a response to said client request.
