I am currently making a smart phone application in Java, and this application would require sending files from the smart phone to a server that is running Ubuntu 12.04.
What would be the best way to go about doing this? I have come across many ways, but which would be the easiest to implement? Is there source code that already exists for this that I can use?
Use a web-service. The easiest way is making a web-server level application on your remote server that would process everything you need to send from your app. This is quite easy to achieve, since you might use POST HTTP requests or even using directly Sockets to send info to your server and the server side just process it in the way you implement it in your favourite language (PHP, Python, Ruby...).
