What is a good RPC framework between a Java server and C ++ clients?

Question

I am looking for an RPC stack that can be used between Java Servers and C ++.

My requirements:

• Easy integration (for both C ++ and Java)
• Performance, especially the number of simultaneous connections and response time. The payload is mostly binary files (8-100kb).

I found something like:
http://code.google.com/p/protobuf-socket-rpc/
http://code.google.com/p/netty-protobuf-rpc/

Are there any other good alternatives?

Answer 1

Thrift may be worth exploring.

Answer 2

I worked with protocol buffer, and I was very pleased. It is really very, very fast. And you can easily integrate it with Java and C ++.
