Using CORBA Compression

The OMG has formal adopted CORBA compression as part of the ZIOP specification in 2010. In 2012 the separate ZIOP specification has been integrated into CORBA v3.3. This article gives an overview of the CORBA compression part of ZIOP. A future article will be dedicated to ZIOP. In that article the ZIOP Policies and the status of the TAO implementation will be explained.

Accelerating the Build Process of the ACE/TAO/CIAO middleware

ACE/TAO/CIAO/DAnCE is a middleware suite that consists of several core libraries and thousands of examples and tests. The ACE package contains around 560k lines of C++ code, the TAO package 1,200k lines of C++ code, and the CIAO/DAnCE packages add another 200k lines of C++ code. This all excludes the generated code by TAO_IDL.

What is the difference between the CORBA Notification Service and the CORBA Event Service?

reposted from the original ORBZone article dd. Monday 14 November 2005

The Notification Service can be considered to be a mature extension of the Event Service. The Event Service provided a model to support decoupled communication, it was and is quite simplistic. It provides two models for supplying events, push and pull, and the event data can either be typed or untyped. The event server itself provides no quality of service or persistence.

So what makes the Notification Service a more mature version of this?
