What is this book about?
Expert One-on-One J2EE Development without EJB shows Javadevelopers and architects how to build robust J2EE applicationswithout having to use Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB). This practical,code-intensive guide provides best practices for using simpler andmore effective methods and tools, including JavaServer pages,servlets, and lightweight frameworks.
What does this book cover?
The book begins by examining the limits of EJB technology-- what it does well and not so well. Then the authors guideyou through alternatives to EJB that you can use to create higherquality applications faster and at lower cost -- both agilemethods as well as new classes of tools that have evolved over thepast few years.
They then dive into the details, showing solutions based on thelightweight framework they pioneered on SourceForge -- one ofthe most innovative open source communities. They demonstrate howto leverage practical techniques and tools, including the popularopen source Spring Framework and Hibernate. This book also guidesyou through productive solutions to core problems, such astransaction management, persistence, remoting, and Web tier design.You will examine how these alternatives affect testing,performance, and scalability, and discover how lightweightarchitectures can slash time and effort on many projects.
What will you learn from this book?
Here are some details on what you'll find in this book:
* How to find the simplest and most maintainable architecture foryour application
* Effective transaction management without EJB
* How to solve common problems in enterprise software developmentusing AOP and Inversion of Control
* Web tier design and the place of the Web tier in awell-designed J2EE application
