Three Day Course

Performance-Based Objectives

Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:

• Set up the EJB environment.
• Develop session beans.
• Develop entity beans for accessing and controlling the database associated with your application.
• Use EJB Query Language for querying a database and retrieving the desired information.
• Develop message-driven beans.
• Process transactions.
• Optimize the performance of a site.

Course Description

This course will help you acquire specific skills such as developing, deploying, and running distributed applications using Enterprise JavaBeans 3.0 (EJB 3.0). EJBs are used in real-world applications such as e-commerce web stores, banking transactions, stock-trading applications, credit-card processing, and insurance risk analysis applications, to name a few, because of their compatibility with a wider range of databases and their ability to be reused in multiple applications. This course is your entry point into learning how to develop EJB-based applications.

Prerequisites

Before taking this course, students should have advanced knowledge of Java programing. The Element K course that is available to provide this level of knowledge is Java 5: Advanced Programming.
