Java Server & J2EE
Java 2 Platform Enterprise Edition - J2EE
The Java 2 Platform Enterprise Edition (J2EE) is a set of coordinated
specifications and practices that together enable solutions for developing,
deploying, and managing multitier server-centric applications and information
systems using Java technologies. The platform encourages the development of
enterprise systems with the ability to run anywhere across a wide range of
operating systems. J2EE extends the Java 2 Platform to cater for the server-side
processing needs of the enterprise with key technologies including the
following:
Java Servlets,
JavaServer Pages (JSP),
Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB),
Java DataBase Connection (JDBC),
JavaMail API & JavaBeans
Activation Framework (JAF) extension,
Java Naming and Directory Interface
(JNDI), Java
Transactions (JTA, JTS), Java
Message Service (JMS),
Remote Method Invocation (RMI) &
RMI-IIOP,
CORBA (EJB, RMI-IIOP, Java IDL,
JTS), J2EE Connector Architecture.
New in J2EE 1.4: J2EE Web Services
(open XML-based standards, WS-I), XML —
Java APIs for XML (JAXP, JAXR, JAXB, JAX-RPC), SOAP with Attachment APIs for
Java (SAAJ) —, J2EE Management &
Deployment tools (M&D APIs, API, JMX, MEJB).

JavaServer Pages - JSP
Sun JavaServer Pages (JSP) technology allows Web developers and designers to
develop and maintain, information-rich, dynamic Web pages. As part of the Sun's
Java family, the JSP technology enables rapid development of web-based
applications that are platform-independent. JavaServer Pages technology uses
XML-like tags and scriptlets written in the Java programming language to
encapsulate the logic that generates the content for the page.
Additionally, the application logic can reside in server-based resources
(such as JavaBeans component architecture) that the page accesses with these
tags and scriptlets. Any and all formatting (HTML or XML) tags are passed
directly back to the response page. JavaServer Pages are an extension of the
JavaTM Servlet API. Servlets are platform-independent, 100% pure Java
server-side modules.

Oracle Application Development Framework (ADF)
Oracle ADF is the Oracle Application Development Framework, and ADF UIX is an
open framework for building J2EE-compliant web applications that are component
based and XML metadata driven.
Roadmap for the ADF UIX technology and JavaServer Faces: This paper
provides a roadmap for the ADF UIX technology within Oracle JDeveloper 10g and
the Oracle ADF, and describes how it will affect the way developers will build
J2EE applications with the emerging J2EE standard - JavaServer Faces (JSF).
Java Object-Relational Persistence Frameworks
- Java Data
Objects (JDO)
The Java Data Objects (JDO) API is a standard interface-based Java model
abstraction of persistence. Alternatives to JDO include direct file I/O,
serialization, JDBC, and
Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) Bean Managed Persistence (BMP) or Container
Managed Persistence (CMP) Entity Beans.

Hibernate: Object/Relational Mapping and Transparent Object Persistence for
Java. Hibernate joined JBoss Group (September 2003) and is future backbone of
JBossDO and JBoss CMP.
Hibernate is a powerful, ultra-high performance object/relational persistence
and query service for Java. Hibernate lets you develop persistent objects
following common Java idiom (association, inheritance, polymorphism,
composition, collections). Hibernate supports all major relational database
management systems and ODMG 3 interface. It is Free Software (LGPL).

- OJB -
ObJectRelationalBridge
By the Apache DB Project.
ObJectRelationalBridge (OJB) is an Object/Relational mapping tool that allows
transparent persistence for Java Objects against relational databases. OJB
supports multiple persistence APIs: ODMG 3.0, Sun Java Data Objects (JDO),
Object Transaction Manager (OTM), a low-level PersistenceBroker API.
- Castor
Castor is an open source data binding framework for Java. It's basically the
shortest path between Java objects, XML documents and SQL tables. Castor
provides Java to XML binding, Java to SQL persistence, and then some more.
- Oracle
TopLink
Oracle Application Server TopLink Java object-to-relational persistence
software integrates the object and relational data worlds, allowing
applications to transparently store and retrieve Java objects using relational
databases. TopLink was acquired from WebGain, which in turn had adquired it
from ObjectPeople.
