Publisher's Synopsis
First there were ORBs-object request brokers now there are CORBA object monitors which are based on the new OMG standard - the Object Transaction Service (OTS) standard.;This text covers not only the Java implementation, but the C++ implementation as well. Programmers are going to need to learn how to master the OTS standard to build the next generation of CORBA applications. Vogel/Programming CORBA OTS and Enterprise JavaBeans shows programmers how to build n-tier applications using the new CORBA standard for handling transactions - called the Object Transaction Service (OTS) - and the Java implementation of this standard, Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB).;The book begins by presenting an overview of OTS, EJB, and related technologies like message-oriented middleware including Tuxedo, MOM, and CICS. It then provides a hands-on tutorial on how to create applications using OTS and EJB. The authors show how, step-by-step, to build a full-scale application that is well-integrated with essential n-tier technologies. They illustrate techniques using Visigenic's ITS object monitor, however, the techniques presented will work with any CORBA or Java-based object monitors. The Website will provide sample code and updates on the OTS standard and Enterprise JavaBeans.
