To drive a car you don't need to understand how the engine works, but if you are a race car driver, you should. If you have race driver level programming talent, this book will take you under the hood of server technologies. By showing readers how to write a powerful and usable Java server from scratch (and in under 1,000 lines of code) this book shows how major technologies can be built from the ground up using bare bones Java. It gives readers a tour behind the scenes, enabling them to create similar powerful technologies themselves. This empowering book is a must-have for serious Java programmers. == Books and courses on servlets and JSP teach a list of features and how to use them. Effectively, this is like rote memorization, with no deep understanding. Because the technologies can be difficult to actually implement, the conventional wisdom is that learning by doing is not possible for server side technologies. But this book aims to change the status quo in servlet and JSP learning, by using an approach that does make learning by doing possible. The book actually guides the reader into writing a small Java web server, that can not only serve HTML and media pages, but implements powerful subsets of servlet and JSP technologies. And all this can be done in less that 1,000 lines of code (that's right, under one thousand LOC) with the guidance and technical approach of this book. The servlet and JSP subsets implement all the core technology and most of the powerful features. This gives the reader actual insight into how and why servlet and JSP features are designed that way, and what is the "magic" going on under the hood. The reader will no longer need to rote memorize the features of servlet and JSP, and will actually understand them. The book is accompanied by a downloadable file. This downloadable file includes support code, so readers can stay focused on the server technologies without getting side-tracked far into string manipulation etc.

Demonstrates how to take full advantage of Java's power on servers by using current technologies such as Java Servlets, Java Web server, and JNDI.

The book has been written to provide genuine domainknowledge to programmers who wish to learn Java, Serverside, Web based application development, using Java EE.Learning web development is done through a set ofexamples and hands on exercises.

The book is packed with realistic information and suggestions for using Java tools in real-time projects. It also details today s rich and complex J2EE platform and practical focus on real world design and deployment extensively. This book is an excellent guide for Java Programmers who may not be very much familiar with fundamental concepts of network and web programming. It is an excellent resource for Java used on enterprise detailing J2EE APIs and programming techniques. · Introduction: The J2EE Platform· Directory Services and JNDI· Distributed Computing Using RMI· Database Programming With JDBC· Introduction to Web Containers· Servlet Programming· Servlet Sessions, Context and Collaboration· Filters For Web Applications· Web Deployment, Authentication and Packaging· JSP Basics and Architecture· JSP Tag Extensions· Writing JSP Applications with Tag Libraries· Java mail· EJB Architecture and Design· Session Beans and Business Logic· Entity Beans and Persistence· EJB Container Services· Development and Deployment Roles· JMS and Message - Driven Beans· The J2ee Connector Architecture· Design Considerations for J2EE Applications· J2EE and Web Services· Choosing A J2EE Implementation· J2EE Packaging and Deployment

Enterprise Java Beans (EJB) is a server-side component architecture and a central part of the J2EE platform. EJB enables the rapid development of distributed, secure and portable Java applications. This follow-up title to Professional Java Server Programming - J2EE Edition goes from design principles and theory right through to building robust real-world applications and concludes with several case studies including EJB applications and COM integration. Published to coincide with the EJB 2.0 specification this book is an in-depth guide to every aspect of this component architecture.
