flock()? You’re not serious, are you? That’s fine if you want to synch file access, but it’s not a catch-all.

For sure J2EE is not silver bullet, but at least you can create servlet filter that creates semaphor on session. In other words only one session can be accessed by the user, other should wait.
I do not recall synchronization in PHP:(

He even suggests a move to a J2EE platform if the bridging of session data across multiple sessions is needed.

Think you misread there – was actually pointing out the flawed thinking of someone believing J2EE is the magic bullet for all stateless HTTP issues (which it isn’t) – perhaps best just delete that.
