CORBA and DCOM were really not great but I don't think you're qualified to have a go at these things if you think that SGML is related to DCOM or that XML and JSON are "componentization tech".

I'd also note that despite how unfashionable it is and was, COM was a remarkably successful component framework. A lot of Windows apps use COM heavily and not because they were required to do so - they componentized themselves using COM because they wanted to and it delivered real value to them.

In addition, I'm not sure how you are defining "component", but the term is rather similar to library, and modern apps frequently pull in enormous quantities of libraries. It worked out OK, actually.
