Introduction

Now that we've covered the architecture of J2EE and have some understanding of the technology behind it, we can begin to examine how to implement a system using this technology. The case study is a time-tested method of teaching through examples, so that approach will be used in this chapter. The following sections detail examples of systems that will be used later in the book to provide a more detailed examination of J2EE technology.

The previous chapters outlined a number of architectural analysis and design principles. These principles will be applied in this case study discussion up to a point. Since we have not discussed or shown the J2EE technology in detail, we will not complete the steps of the analysis and design process ...
