A major problem that is discussed in this paper is the security problem. The presentation of the architecture of the platform and the discussion on the advantages and the disadvantages of the technique is described. A distributed application, which makes it possible to present, the power of the technology and the simplicity that it offers for the developer of distributed application is presented.
