Genesis of a "How to"
In my career I often dealt with RMI issues. To me RMI, Corba, and IIOP look much like "vintage" technology. There are more efficient technologies like RESTFul Web Services nevertheless Java EE still relies on such protocols. In many cases portability and interoperability between containers of different vendors it's just a glorified dream. Years ago I tried to set up a IIOP call in a network between two instances of GlassFish and it was a nightmare!

Bye Alexis
Some days ago I read this post. I wrote to Alexis Moussine-Pouchkine saying
I'm sorry for his resignation.This is a great loss for Oracle and

his reasons but I think that multinational companies sometimes kill
spirit of enterprise.

My first post
Hi everybody,
my name is Alessandro Gentile and I'm an
