Overview

¾ Describe the concepts and

some practical applications
of messaging.
¾ Describe the concepts and
basic structure of JMS.
¾ Write simple JMS messaging
code using the publish and
subscribe and point-to-point
domains.
¾ Discuss advanced JMS issues
such as guaranteed
messaging, transactions,
reliability, and recovery.
