The Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 8: Configuration
and Deployment course provides students with the skills necessary to install,
maintain, tune, and troubleshoot the Sun Java System Application Server
Platform Edition 8 (Application Server) (formerly Sun Open Net Environment
[Sun ONE] Application Server 7) in a development environment. The ability to
write programs in the Java programming language is not required. However, Java
2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE[TM] platform) technology-based
applications are deployed throughout the course to demonstrate various
concepts. Students are introduced to the tools that are used to administer and
deploy applications to the Application Server.
This course also includes the following topics: server architecture, data
persistence and transactions, application assembly procedures, sample
applications bundled with the Application Server software, the Java Message
Service (J.M.S.) and message-driven beans, Java Remote Method Invocation over
Internet Inter-ORB Protocol technology (Java RMI-IIOP technology) clients, an
introduction to web services development, and application migration.
Who Can Benefit
Students who can benefit from this course are application developers, technical
consultants, and those responsible for designing, developing, and deploying
J2EE components and applications on the Application Server.
