A custom ConnectionFactory typically creates Connections that parse
bytes that have been read from the network.
If that's the case, then your servlet should open a socket and write
the custom protocol bytes so that they can be read and parsed by the
custom Connection - basically you have to write a client for your
custom protocol.

You need to detail what you want to do here, and consider the
lifetimes of the objects you want to deal with.
You do not want that a second request to the servlet overwrites the
attribute set by the first request.

I doubt a static will work - would not be overwritten for every request?
Can you detail the problem first, rather than the solution?
