DDS is the least bad of the stuff that has come out of OMG, but it's not a nice middleware still. There is no underlying algebra of that composes nicely when compared to Zenoh for example, and the "vendor independence" and compatibility is usually a joke. There's a reason ROS is moving away from it again.

There's a standard that has OMG as the acronym? OMG. I'm not even going to bother to search for that!

  • Object Management Group I think. Better known as the inventors of UML.

    • They also merged the concepts of Working Group and Task Force into an Open Management Group Working Task Force, or OMG/WTF.

    • Also BPMN, CORBA and UPOS/JavaPOS.

      It's funny that you can legitimately just add " - OMG!" in the slang acronym meaning after any of its creations' names.
