    Is it necessary to use Maven with Advanced Java?

    Hi,

    No, it's not but it's getting very popular as a build tool. You should spend time in learning Maven, if your main area of expertise is going to be Web Application development using Java. In the past, Ant was used a tool to compile and package java source code. This is now being replaced by Maven.
