The Web provides a convenient integration environment for "mature" technologies migrating from existing computer environments. |
Relational databases are a good example where it is now straightforward in Oracle, DB2, Sybase etc. to provide a Web Interface which can be used for data (mail, curricula material etc.) with Java/JavaScript/Forms based Interfaces |
Object databases such as Illustra also interfaced to Web |
Several excellent Java to Database packages becoming available |
CORBA will have good Web and Java Interfaces |
