Java 2 Platform Enterprise Edition

The Java 2(tm) Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) defines a new standard in enterprise solutions through a simplified, component-based development model. By extending the "write-once, run-anywhere(tm)" benefits of the Java programming language to enterprise servers, J2EE adds the scalability, robustness, and security required for today's vital e-commerce and enterprise solutions. The Java(tm) 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition: Platform and Components Specifications defines the architecture for developing applications with J2EE. This volume includes: Java(tm) 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition Specification, version 1.2 This specification defines the initial release of the J2EE platform. It discusses application architecture using Java(tm) Servlets, JavaServer Pages(tm), Enterprise JavaBeans(tm), and other technologies. It specifies application access to services such as JDBC(tm), Java Transaction API, JavaMail(tm), CORBA connectivity, and others. It also discusses J2EE policies regarding application deployment and security. Enterprise JavaBeans(tm) Specification, version 1.1 Enterprise JavaBeans technology provides the standard middle-tier components in the J2EE model. This technology provides simplified support for transaction management and remote object access, and it frees enterprise developers to focus on the business logic of their applications. Version 1.1 of the specification includes a number of enhancements, including mandatory entity beans and XML deployment descriptors. Java(tm) Servlet Specification, version 2.2 Java Servlets technology defines a standard for developing server-side behaviors in web applications based on the Java programming language. As part of the J2EE specifications, servlets technology supports development of dynamic web content for e-commerce and other enterprise applications. JavaServer Pages(tm) Specification, version 1.2 The JavaServer Pages (JSP) technology simplifies the development and deployment of interactive web applications. Using an extensible markup language based on HTML and the Java programming language, JSP defines a server-side mechanism to allow content experts greater freedom in creating and displaying dynamic web content. Developed with the input of a wide range of industry experts, these specifications define a new standard for resolving many complex issues related to developing, deploying, and managing multi-tier enterprise applications. 0201704560B04062001

Enterprise Java experts John Hunt and Chris Loftus take the reader through the core technologies that make up the Enterprise Edition of the Java 2 platform (J2EE). They cover all the aspects of J2EE that both the professional and student needs to know to build multi-tier enterprise applications in Java. This includes the various technologies, design methodology, and design patterns. The text contains fully worked examples, built up throughout the book, which enables the reader to quickly develop multi-tier applications. An invaluable text for those who want to build enterprise wide applications in Java.

Now, there's a realistic, no-holds-barred casebook of today's most important, mission-critical J2EE enterprise projects. Discover what works -- and what doesn't -- as you join trailblazers from the industry's leading Java development organizations, from Oracle to IBM. Rick Cattell and Jim Inscore -- two of Sun's Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) heavyweights -- cover every key aspect of J2EE development, throughout the entire project lifecycle, from requirements and architecture through coding, deployment, maintenance, and updates. You'll find the viewpoints and experiences of J2EE experts from Allaire, ATG, Bluestone, Forte, Gemstone, Inprise, iPlanet, Merant, SEcant, Silverstream, SMC/Java Center, Sybase, and other leaders. The book contains solutions-focused coverage of every J2EE and related technology, including JSP, servlets, EJB, JDBC, JNDI, security, RMI, Internet support, and XML. It introduces best practices for maximizing scalability, developer productivity, interoperability with existing information systems, even avoiding vendor lock-in. For every IT decision-maker and J2EE developer concerned with the realities of J2EE development.

Following her widely acclaimedAutobiography of Red("A spellbinding achievement" --Susan Sontag), a new collection of poetry and prose that displays Anne Carson's signature mixture of opposites--the classic and the modern, cinema and print, narrative and verse. InMen in the Off Hours, Carson reinvents figures as diverse as Oedipus, Emily Dickinson, and Audubon. She views the writings of Sappho, St. Augustine, and Catullus through a modern lens. She sets up startling juxtapositions (Lazarus among video paraphernalia; Virginia Woolf and Thucydides discussing war). And in a final prose poem, she meditates on the recent death of her mother. With its quiet, acute spirituality, its fearless wit and sensuality, and its joyful understanding that "the fact of the matter for humans is imperfection,"Men in the Off Hoursshows us "the most exciting poet writing in English today" (Michael Ondaatje) at her best. From the Hardcover edition.

This is a practical guide to building a secure enterprise infrastructure with J2SE and J2EE technologies. This text explains how J2SE and J2EE security architectures relate to each other, and also covers the security aspects of servlets, JSP and EJB.
