Here is what I want to do:

- Copy a number of files (using a wildcard, like logapplication*.tar.gz)
from one server to another
- Once done, I want to delete the files from the source server.

The first step is easy to do... ssh keys, cronjob, and scp. However, can I
be sure that the file has been copied successfully? I thought of comparing
md5sums source/destination before deleting the source.

Could rsync be of help?

Yes. See the --remove-source-files option in "man rsync". It does
exactly what you are asking for.
Did you even bother to read "man rsync" before asking this question?
