A broker-program generating unit generates a broker program by using an interface-definition-language file defining interface definition information concerning a plurality of applications described in various programming languages. The broker program is installed in a middleware platform that absorbs and hides a common object request broker architecture, and brokers an interaction between the applications with a structure that stores data in a binary format as an interface to the middleware platform.

Method and apparatus for supporting development of broker program, and computer product

In a server system: an information holding unit holds information on one of a plurality of processing units which should execute processing in response to each of a plurality of types of processing requests; a processing-request receiving unit receives a processing request; a determining unit determines one of the plurality of processing units as a processing unit which should execute the received processing request, based on the information held by the information holding unit; and a calling unit calls the determined one of the plurality of processing units so that the one of the plurality of processing units executes the received processing request.
