Java 2 Platform Enterprise Edition (J2EE) is a platform-independent environment for developing portable, robust, scalable and secure server-side Java applications. It provides web services, component model, management, and communications APIs that provide the functionality for implementing enterprise class service-oriented architecture (SOA) and multitiered, Web-based applications.
J2EE allows developers to concentrate more on the business logic of the components instead of the lower level maintenance tasks by having the application server handle the transactions, security, scalability, concurrency and management of the components that are deployed to it.
Java Meetup Organized by Marakana
Marakana team organizes and runs the San Francisco Java Meetup - an interactive group of Java developers. In our monthly meetings, we discuss Java landscape from both technology and business angles. We often have great presentations by industry experts, group discussions, as well as hands-on sessions. If you are in San Francisco Bay Area, we encourage you to join the group and meet other Java developers.

The main goal of this course is to set to students on the right path of developing Java web applications on a best-of-breed software stack (Spring and Hibernate) while utilizing time-tested best-practices. While we don't skip on the theory, students focus most of their energy on why they should use a particular technique, and how to best apply it.
JavaServer Faces Training Course
Let's admit it: JSF 1.x was a pain in the neck. Sure, it was the only major Web app framework that was part of the Java EE spec, and it had lots of great third-part component libraries. But, for ordinary developers it was tedious and cumbersome to use. However, JSF 2.0 is a dramatic improvement in almost every way: more powerful, much simpler to use, has integrated Ajax support, and is better from top to bottom. This course will give a thorough introduction to JSF 2.0 including annotations, defaults, Ajax functionality, page navigation, validation, event handling, page templating with facelets, composite components, and lots more.
