Object Web
  • The evolving systems software middleware infrastructure gotten by merging CORBA with Java. Correspondingly merging CORBA with Javabeans gives Object Web ComponentWare. This is expected to compete with the COM/ActiveX architecture from Microsoft.
JDBC (Java Data Base Connection)
  • A set of interfaces (Java methods and constants) in the Java 1.1 enterprise framework, defining a uniform access to relational databases. JDBC calls from a client or server Java program link to a particular "driver" that converts these universal database access calls (establish a connection, SQL query, etc.) to particular syntax needed to access essentially any significant database.
