Check this out... I received it from a Oracle Newsletter. It is very interesting to get Ed's spin on how things are going to develop.

Hi all, I've been a member of this list for almost two years now, and have learned a tremendous amount from you folks. I haven't had to post to the list much, because most of my questions have been asked (and answered) by others. Thanks to your help, my team has successfully completed a couple of J2EE intranet apps. My next challenge is to provide a migration strategy for a suite of legacy monolithic MFC C++ apps to the "brave new world" of scalable, distributed, multi-user, thin-client software. I'm starting to investigate various technological options and would like your help on where (or what) to look at. A couple of major hurdles are to: * re-use as much of the C++ business logic produced over the last several years. * convince MFC C++ programmers to embrace new technologies. Some technology possibilities (off the top of my head) are: * J2EE with a bridge from C++ to Java (SOAP, CORBA, JINTEGRA, JNI, ...) * ASP / DCOM * .NET * Or separating C++ logic from Java by using a database as a repository XML / SOAP is very intriguing to me because it is embraced by both the .NET and Java communities. My guess is that many of you are running into the same types of challenges. Any opinions, insights, experiences would be very much appreciated.
