I started to read about Application Server but after hundreds documents I really didn't get all the features.
I mean the typical example is a web client that try to read something from a database in a syncronous way(maybe I simplify too much :-)). For example it is useful to have, for example, an application server for a client connected in RMI, that ask to receive a CORBA service in asyncronous mode? Which are the advantages? It is quite clear in the docs about the client connections but I find really vague about the services (third layer).
Someone can give me some tips?
Thanks
