Abstract

Various embodiments of systems and methods for remote method invocation (RMI) tunneling over hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) are described herein. RMI client uses HTTP client to send a protocol message in the body of an HTTP request to a special application on a server. The application dispatches the content of the message to RMI service of the server to handle remote call. RMI response may be sent in the HTTP response of the same HTTP request or some of the further requests. RMI callbacks initiated from the server back to the client are also delivered in an HTTP response of a client's HTTP request.
