Java EE 8 Development with Eclipse - Third Edition

By: Ram Kulkarni

Overview of this book

Java EE is one of the most popular tools for enterprise application design and development. With recent changes to Java EE 8 specifications, Java EE application development has become a lot simpler with the new specifications, some of which compete with the existing specifications. This guide provides a complete overview of developing highly performant, robust and secure enterprise applications with Java EE with Eclipse. The book begins by exploring different Java EE technologies and how to use them (JSP, JSF, JPA, JDBC, EJB, and more), along with suitable technologies for different scenarios. You will learn how to set up the development environment for Java EE applications and understand Java EE specifications in detail, with an emphasis on examples. The book takes you through deployment of an application in Tomcat, GlassFish Servers, and also in the cloud. It goes beyond the basics and covers topics like debugging, testing, deployment, and securing your Java EE applications. You'll also get to know techniques to develop cloud-ready microservices in Java EE.

Chapter 10. Asynchronous Programming with JMS

In the last chapter, we learned how to create web services in JEE. We learned to create both RESTful and SOAP-based web services. In this chapter, we will learn how to work with messaging systems in JEE. Thus far, we have seen examples of clients making requests to the JEE server and waiting till the server sends a response back. This is the synchronous model of programming. This model of programming may not be suitable when the server takes a long time to process requests. In such cases, a client might want to send a request to the server and return immediately without waiting for the response. The server would process the request and somehow make the result available to the client. Requests and responses in such scenarios are sent through messages. Furthermore, there is a message broker that makes sure that messages are sent to the appropriate recipients. This is also known as a message-oriented architecture. The following are some of the advantages...
