Is there a more modern implementation of CORBA?


I'm figuring that CORBA is considered a legacy technology that just refuses to die. That being said, I'm curious if there are any known standards out there that are preferred (and are also as platform independent.)

Thoughts? TIA!


Solution

  • Many organization are moving to WebServices and the open standards relating to them (HTTP, WS-*) as alternatives to Corba.

    This article provides a comparison of the two technologies and offers some recommendations on when to use which.

    If you really care about platform independence and protocol standardization - then the WS-* standards are something to look into.
