Notes
Files from the application server are not usually suited as persistent
repositories of data from application programs. Data is saved in a way
specific to the platform, and only the current application server can be
accessed. This can be a problem in systems with more than one
application server.
Files from the application server can be used to exchange data with
other systems.
