Challenges with storing EJB's in relational databases will be presented along with some suggested solutions. Both bean-managed and container managed persistence will be covered as well as using persistent Java business objects from Session beans. Level: Intermediate Dennis Leung is the Director of Product Development at The Object People. He manages the TOPLink family of object-relational mapping tools. He has consulted with Fortune 500 companies world-wide on object-relational issues. Wednesday, October 20, 1999 -1:00pm-2:30pm Designing Server-Side Systems with Enterprise JavaBeans and the Extensible Markup Language -Ed Roman EJB and XML form a powerful development platform for complete E-Commerce solutions. In this session, we'll walk through how to design components using the latest EJB 1.1 specification, and how XML is used to describe those components. We'll also see how XML is being used in other parts of the Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE), and future possibilities for the marriage of these two technologies. Level: Intermediate Prerequisite: Knowledge of general Java and Object-Oriented concepts Ed Roman is a leading authorities on EJB and J2EE. He is the author of Mastering Enterprise JavaBeans and the Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition, an advanced book on EJB and J2EE development.

Interestingly, each of them, while supporting the EJB specification, is architected differently. As a result, each has different features and advantages or disadvantages for EJB applications. This presentation provides an introduction to EJB application servers, surveying 8-10 available products, their architectural similarities and differences. Attendees will leave with a deeper understanding of the alternative app server choices and what to consider when evaluating them. Level: Introduction Joshua Duhl is the co-author of Object Storage Fact Book. At Stillpoint Consulting, he works with companies using object databases, application servers, or integrating objects with relational data or with the Internet and Web. Thursday, October 21, 1999 - 9:00am-5:00pm Designing High-Performance E-Commerce Systems with Enterprise JavaBeans - Ed Roman In this course, you'll learn how to design critical E-Commerce systems using the EJB architecture from the ground up. Using the latest application server products, you will learn the following: understanding the EJB architecture, how to design a scalable EJB back-end business mode, how to tie a Web-based graphical front end written with Java servlets and Java Server Pages (JSPs) to your EJB systems, and tricks and techniques for optimizing your E-Commerce deployment. Level: Intermediate/Advanced Prerequisites: A solid understanding of fundamental object-oriented programming in Java. Ed Roman is a leading authority on EJB and J2EE.
