The EJB technology can be used to access databases and existing applications. The EJB server provides advanced and transparent access to services such as transactions and persistence to an EJB component. These services may also be accessed from other applications in the enterprise such as applets, servlets, CORBA clients etc.

This three day course covers the issues of designing and implementing enterprise applications using the EJB framework. Other topics that are covered include the EJB specification and the EJB APIs.

This course has been specially designed for professionals looking to build large-scale, scalable and robust distributed systems for the enterprise using EJB.

This course aims to teach a set of advanced skills necessary to implement robust, scalable, reusable enterprise applications using the EJB. This course also provides a comprehensive coverage of issues in the EJB architecture and its supporting APIs. On completion, attendees:

• Will be able to develop robust and industrial-strength applications using EJB
• Will be able to develop server side business objects in Java
• Would have mastered the EJB architecture
• Would have mastered the EJB APIs
• Be able to build Session beans for the enterprise
• Be able to build Entity beans for the enterprise
• Be able to build EJB clients that connect to the EJB server
• Be able to use transactions in a bean
• Be able to integrate existing enterprise applications, including CORBA based systems, into an EJB based solution

This course is designed for developers who have at least one year of experience in Java. They should also be experienced in developing JavaBeans, have some experience in Client-Server development. Experience in developing database applications would also be helpful.
