Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE)
Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) is the industry standard for building web and enterprise applications.
Java EE 7 offers new features that enhance HTML5 support, increase developer productivity, and further improves how enterprise demands can be met. Java EE 7 developers will write less boilerplate code, have better support for the latest Web applications and frameworks, and gain access to enhanced scalability and richer, simpler functionality. Enterprises will benefit from new features that enable portable batch processing and improved scalability.
Learn the basic concepts of Java EE platform. Some of the key concepts include Java Persistence API for database integration, EJB for security and transactions, JAX-RS for Restful web-services, servlets and JavaServer Pages. The article
Java Technology Terminology has easy to scan definitions. The
Java Tutorials provide useful first steps for developers.
