CORBA (Common Object Request Broker Architecture)

CORBA (Common Object Request Broker Architecture) is a standard that enables different software applications, possibly written in various programming languages and running on diverse hardware or operating systems, to communicate and work together seamlessly. It acts as a middle layer, or broker, that locates and manages objects (software components) remotely, allowing programs to send requests and share data as if they were within the same system. This interoperability facilitates building flexible, distributed systems where components can interact reliably across different platforms without needing to understand each other's details.
