Description:

Note: This course is actually a self-paced virtual class. The average time to complete the course is 80 hours. You have 120 days to complete the course.

Learn how to develop and test server-side Java applications, focusing on business logic using the Enterprise JavaBeans (EJBs) component of e-business applications. Develop and test EJBs using IBM WebSphere Studio Application Developer, including stateless and stateful session EJBs, and both Container-Managed Persistence (CMP) and Bean-Managed Persistence (BMP) entity EJBs. Create client applications to invoke EJBs. Deploy and test EJBs on IBM WebSphere Application Server, Advanced Single Server Edition Version 4. Examine EJB best practices.
