Using Sun TI-RPC to develop distributed applications

Remote procedure call (RPC) provides a high-level paradigm, which allows distributed applications to communicate with one another.

Sun Microsystems developed open networking computers (ONC) RPC to easily separate and distribute a client application from a server mechanism. Transport independent remote procedure call (TI-RPC) or ONC+ RPC is the latest version of RPC to be released. By providing a method for abstracting the underlying protocol used at the network layer, TI-RPC can provide a more seamless transition from one protocol to another.

For detailed information about designing, implementing, and maintaining distributed applications by using TI-RPC, refer to the ONC+ Developer's Guide by Sun Microsystems, Inc. on the Sun Microsystems Documentation Web site Link outside information center.
