A distributed application:

  • Enlarges the client and/or server model.
  • Establishes multiple server groups.
  • Enables transparent access to Oracle Tuxedo services or Oracle Tuxedo CORBA interfaces.
  • In Oracle Tuxedo, allows data-dependent partitioning of data.
  • In Oracle Tuxedo CORBA, allows partitioning of CORBA objects in multiple groups across multiple machines, or distributing application factory interfaces and application interfaces.
  • Enables management of multiple resources.
  • Supports a networked model.
