Course Outline
Oracle's JDeveloper and Application Development Framework (ADF Faces) have become recognised as one of the industry-leading Java development and deployment environments for large-scale enterprises. SOA integration, AJAX, and excellent performance are some of the key features.
Course Content
Our Java EE (formerly J2EE) training course provides an overview of Java EE architecture, and intensive hands-on experience in the development and implementation of scalable distributed applications using Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB 3), Java Persistence Architecture (JPA) and Java Server Page (JSP) technologies – including Java Server Faces (JSF) and possibilities for integration with Web 2.0-enabling techniques like AJAX.
This course has been developed for real-world, commercial scenarios by our expert instructors. See below for detailed syllabus. If you have a technical question, please email sales@jbinternational.co.uk
What you will learn
1. How to build a modern web presentation tier, exploiting the latest JSF components and integrating rich client techniques.
2. How to build better and simpler EJBs with EJB 3 and annotation techniques.
3. How to leverage XML with better programming techniques and easier creation of web services.
4. How to improve access to relational data with the Java Persistence API.
5. How to manage transactions and security in a Java EE environment.
6. Assess vanilla Java EE versus popular framework alternatives.
Hands On Exercises
Delegates receive hands-on experience of building Java EE applications, including:
1. Building JSF components for web presentation, and integrating these into a fully working application.
2. Managing security and transactions in a full-blown application server environment.
3. Writing a business tier incorporating new-style Enterprise Java Beans.
4. Experiencing the ease with which the business tier can be transformed into a web service layer.
