Book Description
Java EE is one of the most popular tools for enterprise application design and development. With recent changes to Java EE 8 specifications, Java EE application development has become a lot simpler with the new specifications, some of which compete with the existing specifications. This guide provides a complete overview of developing highly performant, robust and secure enterprise applications with Java EE with Eclipse.

The book begins by exploring different Java EE technologies and how to use them (JSP, JSF, JPA, JDBC, EJB, and more), along with suitable technologies for different scenarios. You will learn how to set up the development environment for Java EE applications and understand Java EE specifications in detail, with an emphasis on examples. The book takes you through deployment of an application in Tomcat, GlassFish Servers, and also in the cloud. It goes beyond the basics and covers topics like debugging, testing, deployment, and securing your Java EE applications. You'll also get to know techniques to develop cloud-ready microservices in Java EE.

What you will learn
Set up Eclipse, Tomcat, and Glassfish servers for Java EE application development
Use JSP, Servlet, JSF, and EJBs to create a user interface and write business logic
Create Java EE database applications using JDBC and JPA
Handle asynchronous messages using MDBs for better scalability
Deploy and debug Java EE applications and create SOAP and REST web services
Write unit tests and calculate code coverage
Use Eclipse MAT (Memory Analysis Tool) to debug memory issues
