CORBA
What about open standards like FT CORBA from OMG? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.72.96.178 (talk)
External links
What about external links like:

- I would prefer as few external links as possible. Wikipedia is not a link directory. External links sections often get out of hand, especially when one provides such an obvious space for advertising. -- intgr 08:28, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
Active/active replication POV/advert
I have tagged the "Active/active replication" section with {{advert}}, since it currently claims that WANdisco has exclusively invented non-master/slave replication, and seems to imply that theirs is the only possible/existing approach, and that it has no drawbacks. However, no reliable sources supporting its uniqueness are presented, and I fail to take this for granted. Claiming that it's a "new mathematical theory" further trips my buzzword meter.
This is coupled with the fact that there's also a Wandisco article with these same claims, which was tagged advert for a second, but subsequently had the tag removed by an anonymous user (diff).
Some factual information about their implementation is certainly needed to make this entry encyclopedic. Reflecting the advantages/disadvantages would be a start. The obvious question arises that how they resolve conflicting updates (e.g., things that would otherwise cause lock waits or deadlocks). -- intgr 10:24, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
