As i Stated in the previous not it all depends

The solutions I know about are:
  WEB services with SOAP:
    Fairly straight forward and from the Ada side all is available in AWS.

  CORBA: with PolyORB and TAU elegant.
    But there seems to be some interoperability problems that may be 
related to sloppy coding in one of the applications.

  DDS: using RTIDDS lots of stuff to learn.
    Requires some budget and is pure PUB/SUB.

  0MQ/JSON: kind of DYO but elegant.

The above middleware choices are platform neutral and there may be more 
but these are the ones i got firs hand experience with.

/And as always in software: "it all depends on..."
