Mastering Java EE Development with WildFly

By: Luca Stancapiano

Overview of this book

Packed with rich assets and APIs, Wildfly 10 allows you to create state-of-the-art Java applications. This book will help you take your understanding of Java EE to the next level by creating distributed Java applications using Wildfly. The book begins by showing how to get started with a native installation of WildFly and it ends with a cloud installation. After setting up the development environment, you will implement and work with different WildFly features, such as implementing JavaServer Pages. You will also learn how you can use clustering so that your apps can handle a high volume of data traffic. You will also work with enterprise JavaBeans, solve issues related to failover, and implement Java Message Service integration. Moving ahead, you will be working with Java Naming and Directory Interface, Java Transaction API, and use ActiveMQ for message relay and message querying. This book will also show you how you can use your existing backend JavaScript code in your application. By the end of the book, you’ll have gained the knowledge to implement the latest Wildfly features in your Java applications.

Summary

For years, JSF has been a good framework to use for those who are unfamiliar with the Javascript and client-side technologies developed in the following years. The development of Javascript parts, as we have seen, is indeed minimal.

Also, there are other frameworks, such as Vaadin, not included in Java EE, which hide client-side development, and which generally allow for less interaction with the server by fully exploiting the REST mechanisms. However, it requires more client-side memory. Choosing the right framework is always to be attributed to the environment in which you are and to the level of use.

This is the end of the section on web development in WildFly. At this point, we have a complete view of everything that WildFly provides and that we can use for our future developments, and we can use the right technology as needed.
The next part will be about cluster configuration...
