Another option that's really powerful is to use a web application server 
to expose business logic as web services, either via SOAP or REST (I 
prefer the latter for intracompany work).  Let the application server 
handle all of the session management issues.  You also get the benefit 
of being able to share logic with other business units if needed.

The wonderful world of SOA.
