If you have satellite images to display, you probably want an OGC Web
Mapping Service (WMS), not a Web Feature Service (WFS). In either
event, the best Java-based option is GeoServer: http://geoserver.org/.

Please let us know if you set up a public website so we can see
OpenLayers in action! Thanks.
