Product Details


Product Description

Review

“…practical and deep…you have to read if you have any interest in J2EE, with or without EJB…” (VSJ—Visual Systems Journal, December 2004/January 2005)

“…a valuable learning experience all round” (Application Development Advisor, 1st September, 2004)



Product Description

What is this book about?

Expert One-on-One J2EE Development without EJB shows Java developers and architects how to build robust J2EE applications without having to use Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB). This practical, code-intensive guide provides best practices for using simpler and more effective methods and tools, including JavaServer pages, servlets, and lightweight frameworks.

What does this book cover?

The book begins by examining the limits of EJB technology — what it does well and not so well. Then the authors guide you through alternatives to EJB that you can use to create higher quality applications faster and at lower cost — both agile methods as well as new classes of tools that have evolved over the past few years.

They then dive into the details, showing solutions based on the lightweight framework they pioneered on SourceForge — one of the most innovative open source communities. They demonstrate how to leverage practical techniques and tools, including the popular open source Spring Framework and Hibernate. This book also guides you through productive solutions to core problems, such as transaction management, persistence, remoting, and Web tier design. You will examine how these alternatives affect testing, performance, and scalability, and discover how lightweight architectures can slash time and effort on many projects.

What will you learn from this book?

Here are some details on what you'll find in this book:

  • How to find the simplest and most maintainable architecture for your application
  • Effective transaction management without EJB
  • How to solve common problems in enterprise software development using AOP and Inversion of Control
  • Web tier design and the place of the Web tier in a well-designed J2EE application
  • Effective data access techniques for J2EE applications with JDBC, Hibernate, and JDO
  • How to leverage open source products to improve productivity and reduce custom coding
  • How to design for optimal performance and scalability

5.0 out of 5 stars Repeated materials? Nope, Jul 26 2004
By Chan (Toronto, Canada) - See all my reviews
It seems unfair to me that Peter rated this book one star.
I doubt whether he has read the book other than the short TOC.

I would rate this sequel book 4.5 stars, since the sample application is not interesting, in particular it use iBATIS in lieu of Hibernate -- see Dion Almear's review on http://www.theserverside.com/articles/content/J2EEWithoutEJB_BookReview/article.html
Like the reviewer, I particularly enjoyed the short but informative and insightful chapter on AOP (Chapter 8).

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly needed myth buster!, Jul 17 2004
By Edmon Begoli (Knoxville, TN United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Rod Johnson is doing a great service to the J2EE technical community with his books. This latest book is definitely a myth buster, that I was personally looking for.

I will tell you right away that this is not an anti-EJB book
that tries to prove you a case against EJBs. This is not a
cheap "Spring" framework promotion book either. This is a very mature expert one-on-one advice that is well worth getting.

Rod gives you a nicely rounded manual how to architect solid J2EE application using the latest and greatest practical solutions available both through the open source and JSR community. He propagates two extremly important ideas:
Lightweight containers and (simplified) Aspect Oriented Programming. Moreover, ha makes a very strong case for the application of Inversion of Control principle (IoC) in your applications. If you are not familiar with IoC: I see it pretty much as a savior to a J2EE technology. J2EE grew incredibly big, complex and fluffy in the recent years, and is at risk of being outflanked by more simplistic .NET solutions.
IoC offers "back to basics" approach where you as a good OO architect focus on the solid business domain model without poluting it with the infrastructure code. Through IoC supporting methods (such as Aspects) you then externalize the infrastructural pieces (transactions, pooling, persitence, logging, auditing,...) that make you apps run in the enterprise environement.

Rod's book gave me a very good basis for the creation of my own state-of-the-art J2EE solution and I am grateful for it. It is the best thirty-some dollars that I spent in the long time.

One more thing, this book in NOT a re-write of his previos book "J2EE Design and Development". I have both and they are not the same. I think you have to have both on your bookshelf in order to get the full treatment.

1.0 out of 5 stars Repeated materials from Expert One-on-One J2EE Design and De, Jul 8 2004
While the book is well written, many materials were already covered in Expert One-on-One J2EE Design and Development (Programmer to Programmer)

The remaining 50% is mainly from the framework reference document and can be downloaded free from the project site.
