This course is an advanced introduction to the Enterprise Java Beans (EJB) technology. It starts by introducing the concepts and ideal for someone who has never programmed using EJB. The course rapidly picks up and ends with advanced concepts that students can use in real life to complete large scale EJB based projects. The development and labs will be based on IBM WebSphere Studio Application Developer v5, emphasizing the new features of the EJB 2.0 specification.

Practical Work
Students develop session beans with WSAD, including accessing a database from session bean and EJB Java Client. Next, they develop CMP Entity Beans, including EJB/RDB mapping, finder methods. Next, they develop a message-driven bean and use the Java Message Service (JMS) server bundled with WSAD. Students also develop access beans. The purpose is to display the use of development, testing, and deployment tools to improve EJB development productivity. The student will deploy a J2EE application to WebSphere Application Server v5.
