What Is the J2EE?
Open and standard based platform for developing, deploying and managing n-tier, Web-enabled, server-centric, and component-based enterprise applications

Open and Standard Solution
Use "component and container" model in which container
provides system services in a well-defined and as industry standard
J2EE is that standard that also provides portability of code
because it is based on Java technology and standardbased Java programming APIs
J2EE TECHNOLOGIES
J2EE 1.4 APIs and Technologies
J2SE 1.4 (improved) JAX-RPC (new) Web Service for J2EE J2EE Management J2EE Deployment JMX 1.1 JMS 1.1 JTA 1.0 Servlet 2.4 JSP 2.0 EJB 2.1 JAXR Connector 1.5 JACC JAXP 1.2 JavaMail 1.3 JAF 1.0
Java EE 5
JAX-WS 2.0 & JSR 181 Java Persistence EJB 3.0 JAXB 2.0 JavaSever Faces 1.2 new to Platform JSP 2.1 Unification w/ JSF 1.2 StAX Pull Parser new to Platform
What is a Servlet?
Java objects which extend the functionality of a HTTP
server Dynamic contents generation Better alternative to CGI, NSAPI, ISAPI, etc.
Efficient Platform and server independent Session management Java-based
What is JSP Technology?
Enables separation of business logic from
presentation
Presentation is in the form of HTML or XML/XSLT Business logic is implemented as Java Beans or custom tags Better maintainability, reusability
Extensible via custom tags Builds on Servlet technology
EJB
Enterprise Java Beans
What is EJB Technology?
A server-side component technology Easy development and deployment of Java technology-
based application that are:
Transactional, distributed, multi-tier, portable, scalable, secure, !
Why EJB Technology?

Containers implement J2EE
Look the same to components Vendors making the containers have great freedom to innovate

J2EE Application Architectures
!
4-tier J2EE applications
HTML client, JSP/Servlets, EJB, JDBC/Connector
3-tier J2EE applications
HTML client, JSP/Servlets, JDBC
3-tier J2EE applications

J2EE platform to J2EE platform through the exchange of JMS or XML-based messages
Which One to Use?
!
Depends on several factors
