This course is excluded from the IBM Base and Extended Education Card, Education Value Card, and Education Pack Programs.

Note: This course is actually an e-tutorial. The average time to complete the course is 60 hours.

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, both Container-Managed Persistence (CMP) and Bean-Managed Persistence (BMP) entity EJBs, and Message Driven EJBs. Create client applications to invoke EJBs. Deploy and test EJBs on IBM WebSphere Application Server, Version 5.0. Examine EJB best practices.

E-Tutorials include:

• Real hands-on labs!
• Live instructor chats!
• Your pace at your place!

Objectives:

• Develop and test session EJBs.
• Develop and test entity EJBs.
• Develop and test message driven EJBs.
• Develop and test Java-based EJB clients.
• Develop and test EJBs to effectively interact and utilize container-provided services.
• Assemble J2EE components and applications and perform integration testing.
• Develop and test J2EE based applications using sound application architecture (for example, MVC and best practices).

Prerequisites:

You should complete:

• Introduction to Developing OO Applications with Java for OO Developers (JA301) or
• Introduction to Developing OO Applications with Java for Procedural Developers (JA321)
• Developing and Testing OO Applications with Java (JA341)
