EJB3 Training Course

EJB3 training course helps students to build upon their background knowledge in Java and acquire specific skills like developing, deploying, and running distributed applications using the Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) technology, all while learning best practices.

EJBs are used in real-world applications such as ecommerce Web stores, banking transactions, stock-trading applications, credit-card processing and insurance risk analysis applications, to name a few, because of their compatibility with a wider range of databases and their ability to be reused in multiple applications. This course is the first step in learning how to develop Enterprise JavaBeans applications like these.

Fully UPDATED for EJB 3.0 Spec!

Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:

• Set up the EJB environment
• Develop stateless and stateful session beans that provide business logic and leverage the power of the EJB container
• Develop entity beans to model real-world entities in relational data stores using Java Persistence API (JPA), implement transactional states as well as exploit EJB QL and relationships
• Understand the core concepts of Java Messaging Service (JMS)
• Develop message-driven beans (MDB) and use them to provide network efficiency and systems integration
• Process transactions
• Optimize the performance of a site

The students will create distributed applications using Enterprise JavaBeans and deploy them on a Java EE application server.

Java developers who are (or will be) involved in enterprise Java development.

This course is intended for experienced Java programmers who are familiar with the advanced aspects of Java like serialization, sockets, RMI, and JDBC.

Previous exposure to Java EE (including JMS), web development, and a working understanding of database fundamentals and SQL is also strongly suggested.

EJB3 training course will build upon these prerequisites to gain the specific skills necessary to develop, deploy, and run distributed applications using Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB3).

This cause is taught using JBoss Application Server and Eclipse IDE. Other application servers and IDE environments can also be requested.
