Pragmatic Object Web Technology Model - I
Basic Vision: The current incoherent but highly creative Web will merge with distributed object technology in a multi-tier client-server-service architecture with Java based combined Web-ORB’s
COM(Microsoft) and CORBA(world) are competing cross platform and language object technologies
- Javabeans plus RMI is 100% pure Java distributed object technology
- Every Netscape4 browser has a Visigenic ORB built in
- W3C says you should use XML
Need to abstract entities (Web Pages, database entries, simulations) and services as objects with methods(interfaces)
- CORBA is “just” CGI done right
How do we do this while infrastructure still being designed!
Major Commercial Java Activity today is on Server NOT Client
