Server for storing the XML files

Hi,

I’ve the following requirement. A centralized server needs to be established using java code. The server’s responsibility is receiving the status of the each client machine as a XML file and storing it in the server’s disk space. The client machine also runs the java code to send the status to the server as an XML file in a daily basis. I’ve planned to create a SOAP webservice in server machine and client machine will invoke the soap webservice to send the status. Do I have to establish any FTP server for storing the XML files? Is there any other better solution for this requirement?

Do I have to establish any FTP server for storing the XML files?

Thanks
