| Technically,
Object Serialization / Deserialization is any from of Object
Marshalling / Demarshalling where the out-of-memory representation
is a serial stream of bytes or characters. For instance, persisting
an object to a relational or object database is not serialization
because such databases aren’t serial structures, but converting
an object to a SOAP stream is. However,
the terms “serialization” and “marshalling”
are often used interchangably without too much confusion.
