Abstract

Web Services and CORBA complement each other in a number of ways. CORBA offers Web Services a mature platform to implement services. Web Services offer a straightforward path to web-enabling CORBA applications. In addition, Web Services, CORBA, and other middleware platforms can participate in a multi-level Service Oriented Architecture, with Web Services playing the role of middleware-to-middleware integration technology. This paper describes in detail the relationship between CORBA and Web Services. It also argues that different forms of middleware, including Web Services and CORBA, should be used together so that developers and integrators can choose from a well-integrated toolkit of different technologies.
