Real World Java EE Patterns - Rethinking Best Practices (http: //realworldpatterns.com) discusses patterns and best practices in a structured way, with code from real world projects. The rewritten and re-edited version of this book covers: an introduction into the core principles and APIs of Java EE 6, principles of transactions, isolation levels, CAP and BASE, remoting, pragmatic modularization and structure of Java EE applications, discussion of superfluous patterns and outdated best practices, patterns for domain driven and service oriented components, custom scopes, asynchronous processing and parallelization, real time HTTP events, schedulers, REST optimizations, plugins and monitoring tools, and fully functional JCA 1.6 implementation. Real World Java EE Patterns--Rethinking Best Practices will not only help experienced developers and architects to write concise code, but especially help you to shrink the codebase to unbelievably small sizes: -).

The surprisingly successful book Real World Java EE Patterns-Rethinking Best Practices [press.adam-bien.com] discusses the rethinking of legacy J2EE patterns. Now, Real World Java EE Night Hacks walks you through the Java EE 6 best practices and patterns used to create a real world application called "x-ray." X-ray is a high-performance blog statistics application built with nothing but vanilla Java EE 6 leveraging the synergies between the JAX-RS, EJB 3.1, JPA 2, and CDI 1.0 APIs. Foreword by James Gosling, Father of Java

Get the deep insights you need to master efficient architectural design considerations and solve common design problems in your enterprise applications. Key Features The benefits and applicability of using different design patterns in JAVA EE Learn best practices to solve common design and architectural challenges Choose the right patterns to improve the efficiency of your programs Book Description Patterns are essential design tools for Java developers. Java EE Design Patterns and Best Practices helps developers attain better code quality and progress to higher levels of architectural creativity by examining the purpose of each available pattern and demonstrating its implementation with various code examples. This book will take you through a number of patterns and their Java EE-specific implementations. In the beginning, you will learn the foundation for, and importance of, design patterns in Java EE, and then will move on to implement various patterns on the presentation tier, business tier, and integration tier. Further, you will explore the patterns involved in Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) and take a closer look at reactive patterns. Moving on, you will be introduced to modern architectural patterns involved in composing microservices and cloud-native applications. You will get acquainted with security patterns and operational patterns involved in scaling and monitoring, along with some patterns involved in deployment. By the end of the book, you will be able to efficiently address common problems faced when developing applications and will be comfortable working on scalable and maintainable projects of any size. What you will learn Implement presentation layers, such as the front controller pattern Understand the business tier and implement the business delegate pattern Master the implementation of AOP Get involved with asynchronous EJB methods and REST services Involve key patterns in the adoption of microservices architecture Manage performance and scalability for enterprise-level applications Who this book is for Java developers who are comfortable with programming in Java and now want to learn how to implement design patterns to create robust, reusable and easily maintainable apps.

"The flip-side of Patterns, AntiPatterns provide developers with formal descriptions of common development gaffes that can derail a project along with practical guidelines on how to avoid them. In this book, the authors present dozens of Java AntiPatterns that tackle many of Java's biggest trouble spots for programming with EJB, JSP, Servlets, and more. Each AntiPattern is documented with real-world examples, code, and refactored (or escape-route) solutions, and the book uses UML (where appropriate) to diagram improved solutions. All code examples from the book are available to the reader on the book's companion Web site."

If you’re an experienced Java developer in the enterprise, this practical, hands-on book shows you how to use OSGi to design, develop, and deploy modular cloud applications. You’ll quickly learn how to use OSGi, through concise code examples and a set of best practices derived from the authors’ experiences with real-world projects. Through the course of this book, you’ll learn to develop modern web applications with tools and techniques such as RESTful Web Services, NoSQL, provisioning, elasticity, Auto Scaling, hotfixes, and automatic failover. Code samples are available from GitHub. Work with dynamic OSGi services to create modular applications Explore the basics of OSGi bundles and modular application design Learn advanced topics, including semantic versioning, integration testing, and configuring components Understand OSGi pitfalls, anti-patterns, and features you should avoid Create a modular architecture for cloud-based web applications Discover how maintainability, extensibility, scalability, and testability are affected by modular design Get a look at various options for creating web applications with a modular approach Interact with persistent storage services, including relational databases and NoSQL Examine alternatives for deploying modular applications to the cloud

"Domain-Driven Design" incorporates numerous examples in Java-case studies taken from actual projects that illustrate the application of domain-driven design to real-world software development.

He has taught since 1982 on various topics, including Object-Oriented Analysis and Design, Java, C++, C. Holub will use this book in his Berkeley Extension classes. * Holub is a regular presenter at the Software Development conferences and is Contributing Editor for the online magazine JavaWorld, for whom he writes the Java Toolbox. He also wrote the OO Design Process column for IBM DeveloperWorks. * This book is not time-sensitive. It is an extremely well-thought out approach to learning design patterns, with Java as the example platform, but the concepts presented are not limited to just Java programmers. This is a complement to the Addison-Wesley seminal "Design Patterns" book by the "Gang of Four".
