What is CORBA? Give a brief Overview.
Solution
The CORBA, which stands for Common Object Request Broker Architecture which was
developed by the Object Management Group (OMG) which is a standard to provide
communication among distributed objects.
The communication between client and server is accomplished through a well-defined object-
oriented interface. The Object Request Broker (ORB) determines the location of the target
object, sends a request to that object, and returns any response back to the caller.
An Interface Definition Language (IDL) is the OMG standard used define the interface
definitions or APIs, which provides a platform independent flexibility.
