Abstract
Given the undeniable popularity of the Web, providing efficient and secure access to remote databases using a Web browser is crucial for the emerging cooperative information systems and applications. In this paper, we evaluate all currently available Java-based approaches that support persistent connections between Web clients and database servers. These approaches include Java applets, Java Sockets, Servlets, Remote Method Invocation, CORBA, and mobile agents technology. Our comparison is along the dimensions of performance and programmability. Our findings point out that best performance is not always achievable with high programmability and low resource requirements. Moreover, the mobile agent technology needs to improve its programmability while giving particular emphasis on its infrastructure.
