it depends on what you want to exchange. you don't need to design server software. you can use http (if running an http server is ok), stunnel, ssh, ... you can even use mysql!
Hi, the amount of data being exchanged is very small (<1k), but it *must* be low-latency. Communicating via http/mysql would mean both servers polling for changes to a database or flatfile db/logfile, which would be highly undesirable.
you can pass 1K of info on a URL as arguments to a http 'page' which invokes your program in whatever web-language its written in.
