<div class="section"><p>RPC includes a standard for data representation,
|
||
|
|
called eXternal Data Representation (XDR), to allow more than one type of
|
||
|
|
machine to access transmitted data. Transport-independent RPC (TI-RPC) is
|
||
|
|
the latest version of RPC. It provides a method of separating the underlying
|
||
|
|
protocol that is used at the network layer, providing a more seamless transition
|
||
|
|
from one protocol to another. The only protocols that are currently available
|
||
|
|
on the iSeries™ server
|
||
|
|
are TCP and UDP.</p>

<div class="section"><p>Developing distributed applications across a network is a seamless
|

|
|
task when using RPC. The primary targets are applications that gravitate more
|

|
|
towards distributing the user interface or data retrieval.</p>
