Foil 44 New Java ORBs (II)

From Distributed Simulation (DIS,HLA) HPCC and the Object Web Visit to ARL Aberdeen -- June 5-6 97. by Wojtek Furmanski *

OrbixWeb by Orbix - so far the industry leader in CORBA technology
JavaIDL from JavaSoft with Joe ORBlet and NEO ORB server
RMI - a 'provocative' (since non-CORBA) Java-to-Java only ORB from JavaSoft
Caffeine - an RMI-like API on top of VisiBroker, developed by Netscape and Visigenic, and to be bundled with all Netscape ONE based browsers and servers.
Meanwhile, Microsoft is tightly coupling the development of Visual J++ (Microsoft Java) with their DCOM/ActiveX ORB model. Hence, the distributed objects domain becomes now the primary competition area between Microsoft and the rest of the Web industry.
