Book Description
Java EE is one of the most popular tools for enterprise application design and development. This book addresses the challenges related to Java EE application development.
It begins by introducing you to the latest features in Java EE 8 and will also throw light on the application that will be built throughout the book. From there, we will go in depth into each of the three tiers of the application, exploring Web Services, Servlets, and the latest MVC architecture, in the first tier. In the middle tier, we will cover stateless EJBs and concurrency, and will go in depth into Java’s messaging service.
In the final tier, we will talk about integrating JDBC into an application, as well as using persistence offered by Java and other alternative frameworks. You will also see how to work with the Reactive architecture and Microservices, while taking advantage of the latest security features and authenticating your application. You will gain insights into profiling your app’s performance, and will see how to overcome issues related to distributed apps. Finally, you will get an overview of some deployment topologies.
