Hello,

As far as I remember, the transaction support defined in
the CORBA services is rather heavyweight. It takes care
of distributed resources and you probably want to use the
CORBA concurrency control service in addition.

>From what I read, developing your own implementations of
both services is rather big effort... We wrote our own
transaction service which is far simpler because we are
only dealing with a single database.

The book 'Enterprise CORBA' by Slama et al. offers quite
a bit of helpful information about the integration of 
CORBA with databases.
