CORBA Insights

What is CORBA?

CORBA (Common Object Request Broker Architecture) is a distributed object computing infrastructure. It enables software components written in multiple languages and running on different computers to work together. CORBA uses an interface definition language (IDL) to specify the interfaces that objects present to the world. CORBA is often used in enterprise-level systems where interoperability between diverse systems is crucial. While once a dominant technology for distributed computing, CORBA has largely been replaced by newer technologies like RESTful APIs and message queues.
