Architecture, Java, SOA, OSGI

The main subject of these entries is the Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) using JEE, web services and OSGI. Open source frameworks such as Hibernate, Spring and the Alfresco Content Management System are presented, too.

Topics such as

• OSGI
• SOA (BPEL, Mediation Modules, Transactional aspects, Fault handling and compensation, Versioning business processes)
• JMS
• JCA
• Scheduling frameworks
• Concurrency aspects
• Design patterns
• JEE architecture template
• Aspects of IT Architecture - Network Topologies, Communication Protocols and Storage Solutions
• Alfresco - practical development aspects
• Web Tier Technologies and Frameworks: Servlets, JSPs, JSF, Portlets, Spring MVC
• Business & Persistence Tier Technologies: EJB and JPA
• Spring Framework
• Hibernate Framework

and more can be found in this series.
