Messaging vs. RPC
darrint asks: "I'm about to write yet another application with parts on different boxes and OS's and languages. Some of my server apps need to be fault tolerant and/or support load balancing. I've worked so far with CORBA and have also looked at the features of XML-RPC and Ensemble. I see two different approaches: remote procedure calls and messaging. Can anyone enlighten me as to the less obvious consequences of choosing one approach over the other? I'm particularly interested in how the approaches support fault tolerance."
