Glassfish v2/v3 and Real World Java EE Patterns @JavaONE 2009 - Free Sessions

My CommunityOne session is now scheduled:

Title: Two Years of GlassFish™ Application Server in Development and Production . . . and Still Excited?
Track: Server-side Platforms
Date: 01-JUN-09
Time: 01:40 PM - 02:30 PM

Room: Esplanade 301

I will try to objectively explain, why I almost exclusively used Glassfish v2 in my Java EE projects. I will try to repeat the Community EAST style - few slides lots of demos and walk-throughs.

At Thursday, at 12:00 AM I will give a podcast in java.net CommunityCorner:

Title: Real World Java EE Patterns - Rethinking Best Practices

Abstract:

The complexity and bloat often associated with Java EE are largely due to the inherent complexity of distributed computing; otherwise, the platform is surprisingly simple. Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) 3.1 actually consists of annotated classes and interfaces that are even leaner than classic POJOs; it would be hard to find anything more to simplify. Nonetheless, (mis)use of Java EE can lead to bloated and overstated architectures. I would like to discuss the essential ingredients of a lean service-oriented architecture (SOA), then explain how to implement one in Java EE without compromising maintainability. I'll start by describing aspects of SOA implementation that lend themselves to procedural programming, then discuss domain-driven (aka object-oriented) design. The patterns and best practices will be explained with Java EE Patterns vs. some J2EE anti-patterns. The discussion is based on https://p4j5.dev.java.net/.

My JavaONE GreenFire FX was approved as well - really looking forward to this conference. Glassfish Unconference will be interesting as well...
