The first of two ports registered to Sun's NEO Object Request Broker, a CORBA product long since discontinued.
IANA assigns 1047 to neod1, "Sun's NEO Object Request Broker", with no registration date and no reference document; 1048 carries the matching neod2. NEO was Sun's mid-1990s distributed-object platform built on CORBA, and it has not been a shipping product for decades, so there is no live software to meet here. An open 1047 today is essentially always something else — commonly a low-range dynamic RPC endpoint on an older Windows host.
Expose with care
The registered ORB is extinct; whatever is listening is unidentified, and an object request broker of any kind is an unauthenticated code-invocation surface you would keep internal.
