By itself, EJB gives you portable, enterprise-class server-side applications. These applications can be developed rapidly without the management overhead of having to construct a scalable, secure environment. Combining this with CORBA allows EJB customers to leverage legacy CORBA applications, as well as integrate with existing investments written in non-Java languages such as C++ and COBOL. Indeed, CORBA and EJB are very related—many of the concepts in Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition came from CORBA. In this chapter, we’ll learn the high-level concepts behind CORBA. We’ll then see how Java RMI and CORBA can be combined via RMI-IIOP. Finally, we’ll look at how to use RMI-IIOP and CORBA clients to access EJB systems. To understand this chapter, you must first understand Java RMI. If you are unfamiliar with this technology, please read Appendix A before reading this chapter. What Is CORBA? The Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) is a unifying standard for writing distributed object systems. The standard is completely neutral with respect to platform, language, and vendor. CORBA incorporates a host of technologies and is very broad in scope. CORBA was invented by the Object Management Group (OMG), a consortium of companies that began in 1989. CORBA itself is simply a standard, just like EJB. The CORBA specification is implemented by CORBA-compliant products, such as Inprise’s VisiBroker for Java, Iona’s OrbixWeb, and Sun Microsystem’s Java IDL, just as the EJB specification is implemented by EJB-compliant products, such as BEA’s WebLogic, IBM’s WebSphere, and Oracle’s Oracle 8i products. CORBA as the Basis for EJB Many of the concepts in EJB came out of CORBA. In a sense, you can think of EJB as CORBA with a new hat on.
