i have been developing web based applications using python+cheetah.
The numbers are increasing. The applications have many common parts of
code. Though these applications are separate from each other they are
run in the same server.
I heard about CORBA... but also heard that it has some flaws...like
the programming being very complicated.
Also heard that CORBA is no more used these days...
CORBA is good for what it is good for. It does take some time
to get up to speed on it, but eventually most of it makes sense.
Some of the language mappings, especially C++, can be hard to use
safely, but the Python mapping is much easier to use.
If you need good performance, multiple language support, multiple
OS/hardware platform support, and preferably control both ends of
the communication, CORBA may be for you. Check out omniORB for C++
and Python (
http://omniorb.sourceforge.net/), and JacORB for Java
(
http://www.jacorb.org/).
Good luck.
