Introduction to Enterprise

Application Development
What is an enterprise application?

 Software that performs business functions such


as accounting, customer information
management, sales and so on
 Aims to improve the organisation’s performance
What is an enterprise application?

 Software application for the enterprises of


today…and tomorrow…
 Need for rapid scalability (both in terms of volume
and geographical spread)
 Need to accommodate multiple types of device
access
 Need to integrate with diverse software applications
 Need to be very change-friendly
 High degree of security reliability and performance

What is a web application?

 Client accesses applications using a browser.


 Client typically requests for a static or dynamic
resource/page from a server connected to the
internet. This server is a web server.
 The client typically gets back HTML page as
response that can view in the browser. Further
interaction with the server can happen using
the HTML page.
Static and Dynamic resource/page

 Static pages/resources are the files that are pre-


created in a particular path in the web server.
 Dynamic pages are created by the application
on the fly.
Web server

 Request for a static resources is met by the web


server.
 The web server understands HTTP protocol.
 Example: Apache web server.
Application server

 Request for a dynamic resource is met by


application server.
 The web server which can run web application
is an application server.
 Example: Websphere Application Server from
IBM
HTTP Protocol

 An application level protocol ( generally


implemented over TCP/IP) used to transfer
information between the web clients and web
applications.
 It provides a set of rules that computers use to
communicate over the internet.
HTTP Protocol

 Communication is done by sending packets.


 The packet structure should be is defined by the
protocol.
 Packets are request and response packet.
 Older HTTP versions was stateless implies that
after one cycle of request-response the connection
between the client and the web server is lost.
 HTTP 1.1 is not stateless.
 Most common HTTP request methods: GET and
POST
HTTP Protocol

 Older HTTP versions were stateless meaning:


 after one cycle of request-response the connection
between the client and the web server is lost.
 HTTP 1.1 is not stateless.
 Most common HTTP request methods: GET and
POST
HTTP and Statelessness

the requested URL Web Server
The GET request method

 Used for accessing static resources such as


HTML pages or images.
 Example: requesting for a page www.yahoo.com
The GET request method

 Can also be used to retrieve information that is


formed dynamically ( example: page generated
by the application in a response to a specific
user query).
 Form tag assumes GET method when method
attribute is not specified.
 Example:
www.mySite.com/index.do?city=Bangalo

A sample GET Packet

GET /mywebdir/index.do?city=Bangalore HTTP/1.1

action="FindBook">
Title:
<input name="title" type="text"><br><br>
<input type="submit" name="Submit"
value="Submit">
</form>
</body>
</html> Query String
Request goes to the application as:
http://myWeb/FindBook?title=“Mastering%20EJB”
URL: Uniform Resource Locator
The POST Request

 This method is used to send large amount of


data to the server.
 It is commonly used for accessing dynamic
resources.
 Data is sent within the body of the request.
 If data such as password is transmitted, the
post method is preferred.
A sample POST Packet

POST /mywebdir/index.do HTTP/1.1


Host:www.mySite.com
User-Agent:Mozilla/5.0…
Accept: text/xml,application/xml, text/html, image/gif

Java Platform, Enterprise Edition

 JEE is a powerful collection of technologies that


sit on top of Java2 Standard Edition (J2SE)
environment.
 It provides cross-platform compatibility for both
application and application server.
 The JEE architecture is managed by Sun
Microsystems with the help and support of many
active industry partners.
 JEE technology is used to build used to build
enterprise application.
JEE technologies: Foundation

 Java Platform, Enterprise Edition 5

Our Focus !
Advantages of JEE

 Helps in creating applications that meet the needs of


modern enterprises (we looked at this earlier)
 Simple to develop application
 Easy to communication with the server
 Declarative security, transaction

 Application server independence


 Application developed can be deployed in application servers developed by
different vendors

 Flexible security model


 Authentication system defined by OS or application can be used based on the
requirement
Java web applications

 Java web applications are made up of


JavaServer Pages (JSPs), Servlets and static
resources such as HTML pages, images etc
 The Web container is used to host these web
components
Java web applications

 Enterprise Java applications have EJBs as well


 The EJB container is used to host EJBs.
 Web Server + Web container + EJB container =
Enterprise Application Server
