Like SOAP? I suppose the idea of HTTP as the transport for a middleware
message passing is much like CORBA, and web servers are already set up to
dispatch various kinds of requests to various kinds of services, etc. I've
always thought of CORBA as a "within a single machine" sort of thing, while
SOAP, etc., being "among many machines", but, of course, both are really
architecture independent.
None of them are particularly "lightweight" when it comes to resources and
determinism on a fine scale.
