Mastering the standard Java EE stack

Java EE provides an environment for distributed applications, which make use of services to provide for high performant enterprise class level support. Understanding the basic technologies and linking them together requires a lot of knowledge and deeper insight in the Java EE stack.

During this track, participants will be immersed in:

• the object oriented techniques for the development of distributed applications;
• the implementation of standard Java components (beans, servlets, JSP, EJB);
• the usage of frameworks from the standard Java EE stack: Java Server Faces (JSF) for the web front-end, EJB for the back-end, and Java Persistence Architecture (JPA) for persistence and the access to a relational DBMS;
• the Java APIs and services necessary to create and integrate distributed applications;
• the tools and utilities of an IDE to build, test, prepare and deploy the components and applications in order to use them in a distributed environment.

Participants are going to develop a distributed application by using the standard Java EE stack. Data will be persisted to a relational DBMS. The combination of Java APIs and the implementation of services (transactional, security, logging, ...) will be put into practice by means of an integrated case study.

Note: if you want to master Java EE with other frameworks, you can choose the alternate course Mastering Java EE with Spring, Hibernate and JPA.
