Lecture 5

Technologies of J2EEBy Mr. Muhammad Shehzad


Review Traditional enterprise application providers have changed

over from 2-tier, client-server application models to three-tier application models.

The rapid development of this new model was fuelled by the introduction of various middleware services.

A developer is usually faced with a range of problems while developing an enterprise-wide application.

The different problem domains include:• Programming productivity• Response to demand• Integration with existing systems• Freedom to choose• Maintaining security

The mission of J2EE is to provide a platform-independent, portable, multi-user, secure and standard enterprise-class platform for server-side deployments written in the Java language.


Review Contd… The J2EE specifications include those to:

• Design the enterprise application• Distribute Roles to people involved in developing

the software (Project/Product) i.e. J2EE specifies the rules of engagement that people must agree on when writing enterprise software

• Bundle the files to the clientProgramming productivity

• Standardize the technologies that could be used in J2EE

• Standardize the interaction between the different technologies


Review Contd… The various J2EE components include:

• Application components• Containers• Resource manager drivers• Databases

The J2EE platform communicates with the outside world in different ways. These ways, known as contracts, are well defined, and separated into:

• APIs• Network protocols• Deployment descriptors

One of the most important concepts in J2EE is a platform role. The J2EE standard provides separation between different roles, so that different players in the market can specialize in their role. These roles include:

• J2EE Product Provider• Application Component Provider


Review Contd… One of the most important concepts in J2EE is a platform role.

The J2EE standard provides separation between different roles, so that different players in the market can specialize in their role. These roles include:

• J2EE Product Provider• Application Component Provider• Application Assembler• Deployer• System Administrator• Tool Provider

The J2EE Platform provides several benefits such as:• Simplified architecture and development• Integrating existing enterprise information systems• Scaling• Security


The Objectives… Describe the various technologies

involved in J2EE Explain the component technologies Discuss the service technologies Describe the communication

Servlets

Server-side programs No interface Form basic building blocks of

web applications Provide the means to extend

and enhance web servers Can be used to generate

dynamic content

Server

Client

Servlet

Applet


JSP (Java Server Pages) Extension of servlet

technology Created to support authoring

of HTML and XML pages Easier than servlets to

combine static data with dynamic content

More suited for separating application logic from presentation logic

Enterprise JavaBeans Used to develop

business logic Allow separation of

app logic from system level services

To use services provided by J2EE, business components are implemented by EJB components/Enterprise beans

Service Technologies

Generally, containers take care of required J2EE services for components

Developer focuses on business logic

Sometimes services may need to be explicitly called

Components of Distributed Transaction System

Java Transaction Service specifies the implementation of the Transaction ManagerMost important component in a

transaction processing environmentCreates transactions requested by components, and performs 2-phase commit recovery protocol with Resource Managers

Summary The J2EE technologies can be broadly

classified into four different categories: Client-side technologies Component technologies Service technologies Communication technologies

Component technologies include: Servlets Java Server Pages Enterprise JavaBeans

Session Beans Entity Beans


Summary Service Technologies include:

Java Database Connectivity Java Transaction API and Service Java Naming and Directory Interface

Transaction - A transaction is a group of operations that are carried out as a single unit on records stored in a database. The group must have a set of characteristics in order to be considered as transactional.

ACID properties include Atomic Consistent Isolated Durable


Summary Contd... The Java Naming and Directory Interface, JNDI

in short, is a naming service. A naming service associates a name with an

object, so that clients can locate the object using the specified name.

A directory service on the other hand, allows attributes as well as names to be associated with objects.

Internet Protocols include: HTTP TCP/IP SSL


Summary Contd... Remote Object Protocols include:

RMI and RMI-IIOP Java IDL JMS JavaMail

XML or Extensible Markup Language is the most popular tool to distribute structured information over the Internet.

XML is used for structured information management.

XML can also be used to create customized views of data .

XML documents come in two flavors – well formed and valid.

J2EE deployment descriptors are written in XML based on predefined DTDs
