Access JCR from another web application

[AG19]

Hello Guys, I have quick question. Can we access AEM JCR from an another Java web application which is running in same system?

Actual requirement is, I'm developing a web application in Java in which in need to access(in Servlet) the AEM JCR and do some operation. AEM and the server which runs my web application are in same system. This should be done with out AEM bundles.

See how we talk to the AEM JCR from a Java Swing app. You can do the same thing from a Java Web app.
