Java Connector Architecture
Sams Publishing (Verlag)
978-0-672-32310-2 (ISBN)
Java Connector Architecture (JCA) presents the JCA and identifies the scope in which a JCA-based adapter operates. The book quickly moves to the design methodologies employed in adapter using the JCA. The book then progresses to information about testing and deploying adapters in a production environment. Java Connector Architecture defines a development methodology and suggests analysis and design patterns, which are useful both for building connectors to legacy applications and for designing adapters for new applications.
Atul Apte has been leading software development projects in the message-based middleware domain for close to 20 years. His experience includes coding in C, C++, and Java. until recently, Apte served as director of adapter development at SAGA Software, acquired by Software AG of Germany. His now the founder of iConexio Technologies, Inc., a Canadian company focused on developing standards-based application integration frameworks and tools.
