EJB Vs. CORBA
What are the specific advantages in using EJBs along with CORBA objects instead of using just CORBA objects ? Is a CORBA object as pluggable as an EJB ?

if you have corba components already or if you need to implement some stuff in any other language than java.

sure, but its a lot of work, and why should you do this if others have already spend a lot of effort in this. corba 3 introduced the corba component modell, but its not really like ejb. one keyword with ejb is plug and work.
if you need corba or ejb depends much on your specific task. even if i like ejb very much in my current project which is heavy distributed, that means every client is a server and vice versa, ejb doesnt make much sense. so we are using plain corba.

otherwise if we use CORBA objects, can't we design the CORBA objects to work as pluggable objects just like the EJBs? I need to know whether it is possible to pack a bunch of CORBA objects into one CORBA Object, just like the EJBs.
