j-Interop is a Java Open Source library (under
LGPL) that implements the DCOM wire protocol
(MSRPC) to enable development of Pure, Bi-
Directional, Non-Native Java applications which can
interoperate with any COM component. The
implementation is itself purely in Java and does not
use Java Native Interface (JNI) to provide COM
access. This allows the library to be used from any
Non-Windows platform. It comes with pre-
implemented packages for automation. This
includes support for IDispatch, ITypeInfo, and
ITypeLib. For more flexibility (in the cases where
automation is not supported), it provides an API
set to directly invoke operations on a COM server.

Apache ActiveMQ is a popular and powerful message
broker and enterprise integration patterns
provider. Apache ActiveMQ is fast, supports many
cross language clients and protocols, comes with
easy-to-use enterprise integration patterns and
many advanced features, while fully supporting JMS
1.1 and J2EE 1.4.

MQS (Minimalist Queue Services) is a minimalist
queueing system that provides a set of basic
methods in order to offer asynchronous messaging
for program/application. Applications can use this
type of services in order to store and retrieve
messages to a dedicated queue in the queue
services. This allows you to avoid direct
connection between applications and provides a
simple asynchronous communication system. It
provides a simple set of XML-RPC methods for
pushing and getting messages in a specific queue
(so you can use the system with any application
that can talk XML-RPC). The queues are stored in a
database (e.g., MySQL) or in dedicated db files
(e.g. QDBM).

GUPnP is an object-oriented open source framework
for creating UPnP devices and control points,
written in C using GObject and libsoup. The GUPnP
API is intended to be easy to use, efficient, and
flexible. The GUPnP framework consists of two
libraries. GSSDP implements resource discovery and
announcement over SSDP, and GUPnP implements the
UPnP specification: resource announcement and
discovery, description, control, event
notification, and presentation (basic Web server
functionality through libsoup). GUPnP does not
include helpers for construction or control of
specific standardized resources (e.g.
MediaServer); this is left for higher level
libraries utilizing the GUPnP framework.

PyORBit is a Python binding for the ORBit2 CORBA ORB. It was developped to suit the needs of the bonobo bindings in GNOME-Python, but is usable for other purposes as well. It aims to follow the standard Python language mapping for CORBA. It can generate stubs at runtime from typelibs, IDL files, or by introspecting remote objects using ORBit2's IModule typelib capabilities.

Enterprise Object Broker (EOB) is an application server that transparently distributes Java objects via their interfaces. It makes no distinction between Local and Remote objects. Because of these features, it is not J2EE compliant. The developer builds beans that implement normal Java interfaces and the deployer decides where the beans are in a cluster of servers. Apache's AltRMI is used in place of RMI. It publishes plain interfaces locally and remotely. The interfaces do not have to extend the java.rmi.Remote interface. Methods do not have to throw RemoteException. AltRMI delivers remoting for Java. EOB sits on top of Apache's Avalon-Phoenix server platform.

Skaringa is an API for Java, JSON, and XML language binding. It transforms Java objects into XML or JSON documents and back, and can generate XML schema definitions for Java classes. Typical applications are data exchange, object persistence, object transformation, and driving XML or JavaScript based presentation layers. Skaringa is designed for speed and simplicity, supporting a wide range of types. It works with all Plain Old Java Objects (POJOs) and is not limited to special cases, like JavaBeans.

SPyRO is a multilingual Object Request Broker
(ORB). SPyRO uses the most efficient available
connection between peers to minimize the costs of
transport and parsing in the communication. SPyRO
provides transparent and translucent remote object
access.

Encdec encodes and decodes C objects such as integers, IEEE754 float and double values, times, and internationalized strings to and from popular binary formats and a wide variety of character encodings as they might appear in various file formats or network messages. It is compiled directly against the libiconv sources.

The OpenAMF Project is an open-source alternative
to MM's Java Flash Remoting. The project's goal is
to produce a program which is much more capable of
providing application services to SWF clients than
the proprietary MM solution. This project began as
a Java port of amfphp.
