JAX Mainz 2012 Proposal: JBoss, Show Me the Java EE Way

Submission Date: Jan 25, 2012

Proposed Title: JBoss, Show Me the Java EE Way

Summary:

2000 called, it wants its bloatware back. At JBoss, we decided to flip the switch and make enterprise development productive. In this session, you'll learn how to build Java EE applications that are slim, fast and powerful. We'll kick off a project with JBoss Forge, develop using the Java EE 6 Web Profile, create real tests using Arquillian, deploy to JBoss AS 7, then take it to the cloud! It's gonna be fast!

Session type: Session (or Workshop)

Abstract:

2000 called, it wants its bloatware back. No where does the Java EE specification state that application servers and programming models must be slow, clunky and fat. At JBoss, we decided it was time to flip the switch on enterprise development and make it productive. In this session, we'll show you how to build applications that are slim, fast and powerful.

Ah, but, how many times have you wanted to start a new project in Java EE and struggled to pull the pieces together? You'll witness how JBoss Forge can incrementally assemble an application at your command, open it in the IDE for code-assist editing and deploy it to AS 7.

Pulling back the curtains, we'll reveal the speed of the new rendition of our flagship project, JBoss AS 7. We'll dive into how this performance boost was achieved through a clever use of parallelism and concurrency, how the modular design saves you from classloader hell and why it’s such a pleasure to administer and test. It’s everything you’ve wanted in an application server. Then, we'll take you through the Java EE Web Profile, show you how it has redefined Java EE to mean "easy" and "extensible" and reassure you that you no longer have to fear testing it thanks to Arquillian. Finally, we'll take it to the cloud using git and the OpenShift deployment plugin in JBoss Tools.

In the end, we'll remind you that you're doing all this with the "Enterprise Edition" of Java without any of the pain that would seem to imply. Like we said, we’ve got a new attitude. Come experience it.
