Participants should have java development background. Familiarity with developing distributed applications is helpful. It is assumed that the students taking this class have completed the Advanced Java class, as well as the Servlets class. We will develop components requiring topics in both classes.

The J2EE platform is Java’s answer to enterprise scalable applications. J2EE is composed of many different APIs. This class focuses on the Enterprise JavaBeans API. This is a hands-on learning experience, with each student having their own Server to learn with. This course can be delivered on Weblogic, Websphere, or JBoss Application Servers
