That is mostly correct, actually. At least it is such a -common- misunderstanding that talking about it otherwise is just plain non-interesting. J2EE is to most people when you use a Enterprise Bean Container, thus EJBs. Without that massive thing, you don't have -any- of the hassle that J2EE stands for. J2EE is when you use the full EAR-filetype. | - A design with just Servlets and JCBC such as your example is also | Enterprise Java. I wouldn't say so at all: you don't have the Bean Container. You have only -plain java- (J2SE), running e.g. Tomcat, and the -one- jar "servlet.jar". This doesn't hype it all the way up to J2EE levels. At all. And as Nic points out: the initial Servlet spec is -way- older than the J2EE name and distinction.
