Java 2, Enterprise Edition (J2EE)Integrated, open standards-based portable platform for development of scalable enterprise applications.
Other Advantages of Java Enterprise PlatformLanguage and API experiences garnered from one area of the platform can be leveraged when dealing with another area. For example, experience of writing a Java applet is directly applicable to writing a servlet. Experience of writing a servlet can help when writing your first EJB, or vice versa. Sandbox, Garbage Collection, and Exception Handling automatically reduce the problem of one component interfering with the operation of the server or another component. For example, servlets allow plugging custom code into a Web server as a plug-in or extension library would. However, servlets have garbage collection and exception handling capabilities, so a problem in a servlet should not affect the server as a whole. The same is true for EJBs that can be deployed on a database or application server. |
