      Why did DCOM fail? Yes, sure, the protocol documentation is extremely obscure and the tooling kind of sucks, but conceptually? I assume that there’s a reason aside from Microsoft choosing to jump on the web services bandwagon, but I can’t actually find anyone come out and say it. The closest I’ve seen is complaints about scalability, but they don’t agree what’s at fault, either—some point to pinging, some to heavyweight COM+ activation... I don’t get it. Given the relative success of seemingly-isomorphic Java tech, there has to be something.

  They don't have to find out to reinvent it.
