  1. Introduction to Enterprise Technologies Presented by KushanAthukorala

  2. Agenda • Overview • Enterprise Applications • Application Architecture • Evolution of Layered Architecture • Enterprise Application Design Issues / Solutions • JavaEE Solution Framework / Platform • Enterprise JavaBeans Technology • Java Servlet Technology • JavaSerever Pages Technology

  3. What is an Enterprise? • In the computer industry, the term is often used to describe any large business organization that utilizes computers

  4. What is an Enterprise Application? • It is a big business application developed using software • Features • Complex • Robust • High Performance • Scalable • Distributed • Component based • Mission critical • Data centric • User friendly • They must meet stringent requirements such as Security, Administration, Maintenance, etc. • In short, An Enterprise Application is an large highly complex business application developed using software

  5. Examples • Online Shopping • Online Payment Processing • Interactive Product Catalogue • Automated Billing Systems • Content Management • CRM – Customer Relationship Management • ERP - Enterprise Resource Planning • Business Intelligence • HR Management • Manufacturing

  6. How to Build an Enterprise Application • Using an Application Architecture specially designed for Enterprise Application Design

  7. Application Architecture • Application Architecture is the Structure of the System • It comprises of following • Components (building blocks) • Externally visible properties of those components • Relationships among them • Layered Architecture is mostly used • It defines the interaction between application packages, databases, and Middlewaresystems • Middleware is a general term for any programming that serves to "glue together" or mediate between two separate and often already existing programs • The application architecture is specified on the basis of business requirements

  8. Evolution of Layered Architecture • Mainframe/Legacy Systems • Single Tier Architecture • File Sharing Systems • Two Tier Architectures • Client Server Architectures • Thin Client • Thick Client • Three Tier Architectures • N Tier Architectures

  9. Mainframe/Legacy Systems • In mainframe systems all intelligence is within the central host computer • Users interact with the host through a terminal • The terminal captures keystrokes and sends that information to the host • The display data of the terminal is also sent by the host • In a mainframe environment users can interact with the host computer using terminal

  10. Single Tier Architecture • File Sharing Systems • A File server has the interface, business logic and database highly coupled • Any changes made to one unit requires changes being made to all units, resulting in a lot of code rewrite • Early PC networks were based on file sharing systems • Client machines are usually diskless and boot from the server

  11. 1. Client requests for a Particular HTML file Client (browser) 3. The file is displayed server 2. The server locates the files and sends it to the browser Two Tier Architectures • Client Server Architectures • Client/Server describes the relationship between two computer programs where one program the client makes request from another program the sever which fulfils the request. • Client • Sending requests • Waits until reply arrives • Server • Waits for requests • On request serves them and send a reply • The first step towards client server architecture was introduction of database servers which replaces the file server.

  12. Client Server Architectures cont. • Refers to client/server architectures in which the user interface runs on the client and the database is stored on the server. • The actual application logic can run on either the client or the server. • There are two organizations • Thin Client • Thick Client

  13. Client Server Architecture with Thin Client • Client implements only the user interactions part • Server implements business logic and data management Advantages • Small code base for client • Easy to develop, update and upgrade • Complex logic is centralized , thus reusable Disadvantages • Changes may be difficult to incorporate • The network and security related logic needs to be handled

  14. Client Server Architecture with Thick Client • Client implements both the presentation layer and the business logic • Server implements data management Advantages • Load is balanced to some extent • Client processing can be tailored to different users Disadvantages • Larger code base on the client • Complex business logic cannot be reused

  15. Three Tier Architectures • The user interface, functional process logic ("business rules"), data storage and data access are developed and maintained as independent modules, most often on separate platforms. Advantages: • Application components are loosely coupled , therefore easily modifiable • Complex business logic can be reused reliving clients from having to code the applications logic (the "fat client" approach). Disadvantages: • System complexity - extremely complex to program and debug • Security issues

  16. N Tier Architecture • Refers to the architecture of an application that has at least 3 "logical" layers (or) parts that are separate. • Each layer interacts with only the layer directly below, and has specific function that it is responsible for.Advantage • Modular approach , allowing concentration only on specific requirements • It is more maintainable Disadvantages • It puts a greater load on the network • Requires interaction of more devices

  17. Enterprise Application Design Issues • Major Issue is the Complexity in Middle Tier • Maintain client transaction scope and duration • Security • Resource Management in terms of memory, database connectivity etc • Exception handling

  18. Solutions • Handling the Complexity in Middle Tier • Use a Solution Framework / Platform • JavaEE • .NET • Use Shared Container that handles the system services • Often called as the Application Serversor Middleware Servers • Examples • JBoss • Websphere • OracleAS • BorlandAS • IIS/MTS

  19. JavaEE - Java Enterprise Edition • The Java EE platform uses a Distributed Multitier Application Model for Enterprise Applications • JavaEE is a platform-independent, Java-centric environment from Sun for developing, building and deploying Web-based enterprise applications online

  20. Enterprise JavaBeans Technology • An Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) component, or enterprise bean, is a body of code having fields and methods to implement modules of business logic. • You can think of an enterprise bean as a building block that can be used alone or with other enterprise beans to execute business logic on the Java EE server.

  21. Java Servlet Technology • Java Servlet technology lets you define HTTP-specific servlet classes. • A servlet class extends the capabilities of servers that host applications that are accessed by way of a request-response programming model. • Although servlets can respond to any type of request, they are commonly used to extend the applications hosted by web servers.

  22. JavaServer Pages Technology • JavaServer Pages (JSP) technology lets you put snippets of servlet code directly into a text-based document. • A JSP page is a text-based document that contains two types of text. • Static Content • Text-based format such as HTML, XML • Dynamic Content • JSP elements

  23. Home Work • Study the JSP Tutorial • http://www.jsptut.com/ • Study the Part I and Part II sections of Java EE 5 Tutorial • http://java.sun.com/javaee/5/docs/tutorial/doc/index.html

  24. Apache Web Server Presented by KushanAthukorala

  25. Agenda • Brief History • Apache Software Foundation(ASF) • Apache Projects • Apache Downloading and Installation - Demo • Windows • Linux • Running and Testing – Demo • Hosting your own Static Web Pages – Demo • Run-time Configuration Directives - Demo

  26. Apache Software Foundation • Brief History • In 1995 • NCSA (National Center for Supercomputer Applications) Web Server developed. • A group of developers patched the NCSA code base couple of times during the year • A new version released, called “A PAtCHy Web Server”. • In 1999 • APACHE web server was very popular since it is Free and Open Source Software(FOSS) • Same folks formed the ASF as a non-profit organization to develop FOSS projects • Today Courtesy of http://www.netcraft.com
