Architecting and Designing J2EE[tm] Applications

( SL-425 )


     Course DescriptionBack To Top

Building robust enterprise applications requires a blueprint that allows for rapid growth. In addition to learning how to scale applications, participants in Architecting and Designing J2EE[tm] Applications will learn how to address flexibility, performance, security and manageability issues with a series of general guidelines. Through discussion groups, participants will learn how to apply these guidelines using real-world architectures and design patterns to create Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) applications. Based on the material found in the J2EE companion book from J2EE Blueprints "Designing Enterprise Applications" and additional examples drawn from the real-world experiences of Sun Microsystems' Java Professional Services, this course provides a fast-track and immediately applicable learning experience for system architects.
