  • CORBA

           The CORBA is a consensus standard of the OMG to standardize interfaces across enterprise applications. CORBA defines the  interfaces across applications in a canonical manner by using the Interface Definition Language.

            CORBA's strength are high performance and openness. However the ORBs from various vendors do not interoperate seamlessly. CORBA privides standards for services such as Transactions, Naming,  Events etc. However the out of the box services such as the naming service supplied by the vendors are not generally of industrial strength. Hence the uses end up writing their own set of services for each implementation.
