Weblogic is an application server. Beans are java snippets executed by the httpd proces themselves. Beans cannot access/generate HTML. If you wand Java code do HTML, then we are talking servlets. Servlets are executed by separate processes spawned by the httpd processes ("servlet engine"). Servlets and beans can connect to the database using JDBC and they can do prefetch. That's as far as it goes. Force that Java guy to explain you what is it that he wants to, in English language and using classic terminology. If he can not, he doesn't know what he's doing and he's just trying to raise his own price by using incomprehensible terminology.
