Best technology for agent/web server architecture

[Florencio Cano]

Hi,
I would be interested in your opinion about what technology you
considear the ideal technology for implementing in Python an agent
that should comunicate information to a web server. I have read about
SOAP but I'm now sure if this will be the right one.
The aim of the agent is gather inventory information and the web
application (I'm programming it in Django) will receive this
information and will store it in the database and will show it in
tables.
