This is the first end-to-end guide to building and maintaining fast, scalable Web applications with Java technologies. Unlike competitive books, Building Scalable Java Web Applications doesn't focus on a single technology: it shows how they all fit together -- offering practical integration techniques that encompass servlets, EJB, RMI, database design, messaging, deployment, and much more. Barish begins with an overview of the performance challenges faced by developers of enterprise Web applications and sites; then introduces key architectural techniques that lay the groundwork for optimal performance. He introduces an array of approaches to scalability and performance, including caching and replication; then takes a close look at HTTP client/server communication and Web-based request processing. The book includes in-depth, practical coverage of session management with Java servlets using Enterprise JavaBeans; application middleware alternatives such as RMI and CORBA; and database design and integration for quick Web response. Barish concludes with a detailed example application.
Greg Barish is a consultant specializing in the design of and architecture for scalable and high-performance Web applications. He has held engineering positions at both Oracle and at Healtheon/WebMD, where he was primarily involved in the design and implementation of object-oriented, distributed application systems. Mr. Barish earned a B.S. in cognitive science from UCLA and an M.S. in computer science from the University of Southern California. 0201729563AB12172001
