Review:
This timely book sets the bar for Object Transaction Monitors (OTMs). Then it provides in-depth comparisons of the leading OTM contenders - including the dirt and the gotchas. As a result, you get a $3,000 analyst report on the current state of OTMs for the price of a book. How could you pass that up? This book is must reading for anyone involved in middleware. -- Robert Orfali, Author Client/Server Survival Guide, Third Edition
Synopsis:
The explosion of object-oriented programming with CORBA and COM has led to the invention of a new breed of object technology called object monitors (also referred to as object transaction monitors) which marry CORBA and COM-based ORBs with other important functions, like messaging, to create a single integrated solution for building n-tier applications. The market for object monitors is huge, expected to be a $3.7 billion industry by the year 2000. This text should give readers the information they need to make the right strategic decisions to meet business requirements and evaluate and select products to satisfy specific application requirements. The book also addresses such topics as integrating object monitors with existing software; the pros and cons of combining middleware solutions from more than one vendor, and other technical options to these middleware products.
