DCOM

 

Use the Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM) to allow your applications to be distributed across locations that make the most sense to you and to the application. The DCOM wire protocol transparently provides support for reliable, secure, and efficient communication between COM components such as Microsoft® ActiveX® controls, scripts, and Java applets residing on different machines in a LAN, a WAN, or on the Internet.
