Course Description:
This course provides students with knowledge needed to use the Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE platform) to create robust enterprise applications that allow for rapid change and growth. Participants gain an understanding of the strategies needed to create application blueprints that work well when implementing J2EE technologies. These strategies include effective decision making through the use of systemic qualities (such as scalability and flexibility), J2EE technology blueprints and design patterns, and iterative and incremental development.
Course Objectives
Upon completion of this course, you will be able to:
- Make good use of J2EE component technologies to solve typical
problems in system architecture
- Derive software systems using techniques outlined in the J2EE
Blueprint and solutions defined in the J2EE Patterns Catalog
- Address quality-of-service requirements in a cost-effective
manner using engineering trade-off techniques
- Describe the role of the architect and the products an architect
delivers
- List and describe typical problems associated with large-scale
enterprise systems
- Identify the benefits derived from using an iterative and
incremental development process
Who Should Attend
Students who can benefit from this course are those who are responsible for the overall software architecture and design of J2EE technology-based enterprise software systems. These students would also require insight into the role of the enterprise architect and want to use J2EE technologies in n-tier enterprise systems. Existing architects can also benefit from an understanding of how to use J2EE technologies to improve quality of service in their enterprise systems.
