Netscape is the major promoter of the Object Web
|
|
Netscape believes IIOP will integrate anti-Microsoft coalition to successfully compete with DCOM/ActiveX
|
|
All Netscape browser and server products are coming with built-in IIOP support
|
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
|
|
Integration of the 3-tier Object Web with JavaBeans via JavaScript based Bean-Connect technology towards Crossware (see next slide) is under way
|
|
Crossware is more of a CORBA enabled object web "philosophy" than a product
