Remote Method Invocation with Pyro4

Python Remote Objects (Pyro4) is a library that resembles Java's Remote Method Invocation (RMI), which allows you to invoke a method of a remote object (that belongs to a different process and is potentially on a different machine) almost as if the object were local (that is, it belonged to the same process in which it runs the invocation). In this sense, the Remote Method Invocation technology can be traced from a conceptual point of view. The idea of a remote procedure call (RPC) is reformulated for the object-oriented paradigm (in which, of course, the procedures are replaced by methods). The use of a mechanism for remote method invocation in an object-oriented system entails the significant advantages of ...
