Using Java Servlet Technology in Web Applications

 Course Description
    Course Outline/Details

The Using Java Servlet Technology in Web Applications course provides a deeper understanding of developing Web applications using Java technology servlets. The modules in this course describe specific Web application features, such as: session management, security, error handling, and con currency control. These features will make Web applications robust and flexible. In this course, students should learn:

  • How to design and develop a Web application using a variation on the Model-View-Controller (MVC) design pattern
  • How to design and develop a Web application using session management
  • How to design and develop a Web application to handle server-side exceptions
  • How to design and deploy a secure Web application
  • How to recognize con currency issues within your Web application and how to use proper synchronization techniques to create thread-safe Web applications

    • NOTE: The optional exercises in this course require a separate download and installation of the Apache Tomcat server and Java virtual machine.

  • Course length: 4-5 hours

    • This course requires the Macromedia Flash 4 (or higher) player. Click here to test if you have Flash.

     Prerequisites Back To Top

    To succeed fully in this course, students should be able to:

  • Create and use Java technology classes, packages, interfaces, exceptions, and collections
  • Compile and execute a Java technology program
  • Read and use an object-oriented API
  • Integrate with existing Java technology code (for example, when code developed by another team is needed)
  • Model the "what" and "how" of a software system using some modeling language, such as Unified Modelling Language (UML)
  • Understand the component/container software framework
  • Understand what an n-tiered architecture consists of (presentation logic, business logic, data store)
  • Understand why separation of presentation logic and business logic is a good idea

    •  
     Skills Gained Back To Top

    Upon completion of this course, you should be able to:
  • Understand how to design and develop robust Web applications using servlet technology
  • Understand the importance of applying the MVC pattern's main goal of "separation of concerns" to Web application design
  • Design a Web application that encapsulates the Model elements of the application into separate Java technology classes and to partition the Controller and View elements into separate servlet methods
  • Design and develop a servlet that uses the HttpSession interface to record user data across multiple HTTP requests
  • Design and develop a servlet that manages error handling using either declarative or programmatic techniques for catching exceptions
  • Design and deploy a Web application that uses the authentication and authorization techniques provided by the Web container
  • Recognize thread-safety issues in Web applications and identify which Web application attribute scopes are thread-safe
  • Develop synchronization blocks that properly manage concurrency control when dealing with Web application attributes
