Java is an object-oriented language that knows nothing about databases.
RPG is a database-oriented language that knows nothing about objects.
If a Java programmer has to access a database, he/she must do all sorts
of awkward things with connection, connection handles, connection pools,
statement handles, etc. Very complicated stuff. So for a Java programmer
it makes much more sense to call a program/function/method that does all
the hard work. Thus it makes sense to create programs to give the Java
side access to the database.

Given this, wouldn't it make sense to create I/O modules to be used by
non-RPG applications that need to access the iSeries database? These
modules could then be exposed as web services, stored procedures, etc.
