Foil 26 Java Server versus HP level - I

From Multidisciplinary Applications MAPINT97 Workshop -- 16-18 June 97. by Geoffrey C. Fox *
Note JDBC (Java Database Connection) links clients to servers at natural (sequential) SQL query and database connection level
  • This is at server not high performance level
  • parallel database invoked transparently if implemented by server
CORBA is similar except parallel CORBA still needs to be understood!
  • Only at server level so far with JavaIDL
Suggest Java Compute Framework similarly defines interfaces to distributed computing level
  • Drop down to HPCC if and only if necessary
