Why does EJB needs two interfaces, Home and Remote Interface?..

Answer / john doe

The Home Interface is used to create an EJB Object. The Home
interface specifies the Remote interface and calls the
create(). After the EJB Object is created it will return its
reference to the Home Interface.

When a call to a function is made. The client will use this
reference and call the specific remote interface which
inturn will pass the request to the EJB Object. The EJB
Object decides which function has to be called from the EJB
