I am VERY new to Avalon, so please bear with me. We are defining the architecture for a pretty big set of projects that will have to work together to an extent. Some of the projects in the set are already implemented and make heavy use of EJBs; others are yet to be defined, including some form of common architecture that should bind everything in place. It is NOT a requirement that everything uses EJBs, but again, EJBs ARE part of the mix.
Does Avalon have anything to say in such a scenario? Could I use the concepts and patterns present in Avalon to define an architecture that will also allow the interaction with EJBs? Some of the new projects will surely have to implement new EJBs. Can Avalon be used to help in this? Can I use the Avalon components to simplify or improve the construction of new EJB components? Besides what can be found at the Jakarta site (including the PDF doc), are there any further documents or resources about Avalon? About Avalon and EJBs? If Avalon is not a good fit for an EJB/nonEJB environment, anybody has suggestions for alternative frameworks? Completely outside Avalon, does anybody know any framework whose target is the EJB world? I mean, a framework with concepts, patterns and practices that will help with the development of portable, scalable, nice, hip, beautiful and fashionable EJBs? Hopefully open source?
