Features: The results of applying J2EE in practice are often disappointing—applications are not only slow but also highly complex, requiring a significant amount of development time. The issue is not with J2EE itself but rather how it is often misused. Many J2EE proponents have begun to recognize that while theoretically sound, J2EE fails in practice or does not provide true business value. In this book, the author provides a real-world guide that enables readers to make J2EE work effectively in practice. J2EE is the best platform available today for enterprise software development. The goal of this book is to help readers make architecture and implementation decisions for J2EE development with ease. The content covers: when to use distributed architectures; how to use EJBs efficiently; developing effective data access strategies; designing simple and highly maintainable web interfaces; designing high-performance J2EE applications, and more. The perspective in this book is completely independent, problem-oriented rather than prescriptive, and is based on the author's actual experience using J2EE in production.
