Welcome to the World of the Open Business Object. OBOE is a consortium of
partner companies brought together under the European Union's
Esprit program to
investigate and develop business systems that take advantage of the principles
of Object Oriented Technology. The project will implement (and to some extent
anticipate) the Object Management Group (OMG)'s envisioned "Business Object
Facility". This will be an advanced platform for Business Objects. OBOE
will deliver a set of Business Objects that will demonstrate the use of a
Business Object Facility built from platform technology provided by one
supplier who is a partner in the project. These Business Objects will
illustrate new features such as the capability of Business Objects to be
integrated into useful solutions by "users" without the need for
special skills.
The OMG is the primary industrial body for the promotion of the
standardisation and adoption of object technology. The OMG was formed in
April 1989 with the explicit goal of fostering consensus in the "distributed
object" industry. The OMG mission is to bring vendors and end-users together
in a forum in which agreement can be reached on the technical content of
distributed object architectures. Unlike other initiatives in the standards
arena, the OMG has no engineering aspect to it. The OMG is a not-for-profit
organisation whose sole agenda is to facilitate the membership in the
progression of technical work.
