I have a project at work which I just need to break down a given URL and insert data into a database, nothing more, nothing less. Right now for convenience sake, I’m using JBoss, mainly because it was already setup and ready to go. That’s way too much stuff for this so I wanted something simple. Hopefully I’ve found that with Mongrel and the ability to create simple, custom handlers.

Since I can’t show the actual project, I’ve pasted a sample one which does pretty much what I want. I’m hoping to do some load testing on it this week and if it performs like I hope, life will be nice.
