Architecture & Design Patterns for JavaEE (J2EE) Course Overview

Course Code:	JAV0180
Price:	£995
Duration:	2 Days - custom / on-site options available - please call.
DATE:
Who should attend:	N/A
Prerequisite Skills:	Delegates should have at least 6 months experience of programming in Java, and should be generally familiar with the concepts behind J2EE, the design of enterprise systems, and the operation of web servers.

This course provides an introduction to the design and implementation of J2EE applications, using the services provided by JavaEE (J2EE).

Note that the course is not designed to teach the basics of JavaEE from scratch, but to show the options available to architects designing JavaEE systems.

Architecture & Design Patterns for JavaEE (J2EE) Training Course Outline

Context of J2EE Applications

Gain/refresh familiarity with J2EE technologies and the context in which they are usually deployed

J2EE Patterns and Blueprints

Clarify the scope and purpose of J2EE Patterns and Blueprints, what they are and where they can be found

Web Presentation Patterns

Identify bad practices in the implementation of user interfaces using Web technology.
Improve maintainability of UI through the application of patterns

Business Component Patterns

Map the analysis model onto “business” components and consider how these could be implemented in J2EE.
Improve the maintainability and flexibility of the business components through the application of common patterns

Distribution and Structural Patterns

Examine the impact on J2EE design of distribution, transactions and other ‘structural’ concerns.
Explore the patterns that can be introduced to overcome some of the issues associated with these technical aspects of the system

Data and Integration Layer Patterns

Explore different styles of data access in J2EE and various patterns for mapping domain data to J2EE elements.
Examine common patterns and idioms for accessing non-database business data and services

Applications, J2EE Blueprints and Patterns

Look at the Sun J2EE Blueprints and see how they use patterns.
Identify implementations of patterns discussed earlier in the course and examine any other major patterns, principles and idioms used in the Blueprint applications

J2EE, Web Services and Patterns

Explore how the use of Web Service protocols and principles impact the design of J2EE applications.
Examine the main distribution patterns encountered earlier and see if they are still applicable
