Foil 63 Crossware from Netscape Corp.

From JavaBeans CORBA ComponentWare UC Web applications Certificate -- Aug 11,14 97. by Geoffrey C. Fox, Wojtek Furmanski


1 Netscape is the major promoter of the Object Web
2 Netscape believes IIOP will integrate anti-Microsoft coalition to successfully compete with DCOM/ActiveX
3 All Netscape browser and server products are coming with built-in IIOP support
4 Other browsers can acquire ORB capabilities by downloading suitable ORBlets as applets
  • Note in CORBA, one has server capability on all clients and so you invoke the ORB on your client and them get to remote objects around the web
5 Integration of the 3-tier Object Web with JavaBeans via JavaScript based Bean-Connect technology towards Crossware (see next slide) is under way
6 Crossware is more of a CORBA enabled object web "philosophy" than a product
