Distributed computing using java RMI and CORBA

Question

following is the problem i am facing. i will explain it will an example

If there is an IT department that makes use of Java RMI and another department which make use of CORBA, if i happened to integrate those two departments

1. spending least amount of time

2. with least budget

what are the approaches I can take

could someone help me to find an answer for this question. I really appreciate any help

Answer 1

I fear spending the least amount of time together with the least budget together will be counter-productive (if that's what you mean).

Since Java has a native CORBA implementation, you should be able to put together a gateway service simply by referencing the IDL definitions from the CORBA projects.

Answer 2

Consider Hessian.
