About Ambit
Ambit was developed in the late 1990s as a language for mobile computation, aimed at addressing the challenges of distributed and networked systems. It provided mechanisms for code and data mobility, allowing computations to move seamlessly across different machines. The language was part of research efforts to explore new paradigms in distributed computing.
Ambit's strengths included its ability to facilitate mobile computation and enhance flexibility in distributed systems. Weaknesses involved limited adoption and complexity in implementation. Competitors included other distributed computing languages and frameworks like Java RMI, CORBA, and later, more modern solutions such as Apache Kafka and Kubernetes.
