Designing RMI Applications
Naming Services
The rmiregistry is limited to one flat search space of services on one machine!
Scalable systems can extend the
DNS
idea by adding attributes.
Most popular example is
LDAP
.
It defines nested

. Elements can be added to any context and have attributes and values.
Search proceeds bottom-up. Assumes most searches answered locally.
