5. ∗ An EJB is just a collection of Java classes and XML file,
bundled into a single unit. The Java classes must
follow certain rules and provide certain callback
methods.
∗ EJB is just a specification. It is not a product.
∗ EJBs are reusable components.
What is EJB?
Contact Us On :
www.vibranttechnologies.co.in
6. ∗ EJB is a widely-adopted server-side component
architecture for J2EE.
∗ EJB components are designed to encapsulate
business logic, and to protect the application
developer from having to worry about system level
issues.
What is EJB?
Contact Us On :
www.vibranttechnologies.co.in
7. ∗ EJB components are server-side components
written entirely in the Java programming
language
∗ EJB components contain business logic only - no
System-level programming
∗ System-level services (i.e. "plumbing") such as
transactions, security, Life-cycle, threading,
persistence, etc. are automatically managed for
the EJB component by the EJB server
Key features of EJB technology
Contact Us On :
www.vibranttechnologies.co.in
8. ∗ EJB architecture is inherently transactional,
distributed, portable, multi-tier, scalable and secure
∗ EJB components are fully portable across any EJB
server and any OS, work with any client.
∗ Components are declaratively customized
∗ There are four major parts to every bean: the home
interface, the remote interface, the implementation
class and the XML deployment descriptor
Key features of EJB technology
Contact Us On :
www.vibranttechnologies.co.in
9. ∗ The JavaBeans architecture is meant to provide a
format for general-purpose components whereas the
EJB architecture provides a format for encapsulation
and management of business logic.
∗ JavaBeans has tier of execution at Client and EJB has
at Server (specifically business logic tier)
EJB vs JavaBeans
Contact Us On :
www.vibranttechnologies.co.in
10. ∗ In JavaBeans the runtime execution environment
provides services like Java libraries, Java application
etc. The EJB runtime environment provides services
of Persistence, declarative transactions and security,
connection pooling and lifecycle services.

12. ∗ EJB specification provides enterprise-level services,
that is, it provides software services that are
fundamental to an organization’s purpose.
∗ EJB’s API was designed to keep the application
programmer from having to provide systems-level
services, so that they are free to concentrate on
business logic.
Why use EJBs in your design?
Contact Us On :
www.vibranttechnologies.co.in
13. ∗ A requirement of any of the services provided by an
EJB container like transactions, scalability,
persistence, security, future growth possibilities is an
appropriate reason to use EJB in the design of the
application.

18. ∗ A container is an execution environment for a
component. The component lives in the container and
the container provides the services for the
component.
∗ Similarly, a container lives in an application server,
which provides an execution environment for it and
other containers.
EJB Container and its Services
Contact Us On :

19. ∗ Persistence
Ex: simple connection pooling, automatic
persistence, etc. EJBs created with application
development tools will encapsulate data access in
components.

Services provided by an EJB container
Contact Us On :
www.vibranttechnologies.co.in
21. There are three basic ideas:
∗ First, there are clearly defined responsibilities between the
various parts of an application using EJB component
namely the client, the EJB container and the EJB
component. The definition of these responsibilities is
formally known as a contract.
∗ Second, the services that the container provides are
defined in such a way that they are orthogonal to the
component. In other words, security, persistence,
transactions are separate from the Java files that
implement the business logic of the component.
How the Container Provides Services
Contact Us On :
www.vibranttechnologies.co.in
22. ∗ Third, the container interposes on each and every call
to an EJB component so that it can provide its
services. In other words, the container puts itself
between the client and the component on every
single business method call.
How the Container Provides Services
Contact Us On :
www.vibranttechnologies.co.in
24. ∗ The developer of the EJB component must implement the
business methods in the implementation class
∗ The bean provider must implement the ejbCreate(),
ejbPostCreate(),ejbRemove() methods and the
ejbFind<METHOD>() methods if the bean is an entity with
bean managed persistence
∗ The bean provider must define the enterprise bean’s home
and remote interfaces
∗ For session beans, the bean provider must implement the
container callbacks defined in the javax.ejb.SessionBean
interface
Rules for the bean programmer
Contact Us On :
www.vibranttechnologies.co.in
25. ∗ For entity beans, the provider must implement the
container callbacks defined in the
javax.ejb.EntityBean interface
∗ The bean provider must not use programming
practices that would interfere with the container’s
runtime management of the enterprise bean
instances
Rules for the bean programmer
Contact Us On :
www.vibranttechnologies.co.in
26. ∗ First, the client makes a call on the RMI stub
∗ This RMI stub interposes on the method call in order
to marshal parameters and send the information
across the network
∗ A skeleton on the server side unmarshals the
parameters and delivers them to the EJB Container
Interposition : method call to an EJB
Container from a remote client
Contact Us On :
www.vibranttechnologies.co.in
28. ∗ The container will examine the security credentials of the
caller of the method
∗ It will start or join with any required transactions
∗ It will make any necessary calls to persistence functions
∗ It will trigger various callbacks to allow the EJB
Component to acquire resources
∗ Only after all this is done will the actual business method
be called
∗ Once it is called, the container will do some more work
with transactions, persistence, callbacks and returns data
or exception to the remote client
Interposition : from EJB Container
to EJBs

29. The Enterprise JavaBeans specification is written for
three audiences:
∗ The Client developer
∗ The EJB developer
∗ The EJB container developer
Working with EJBs
Contact Us On :
www.vibranttechnologies.co.in
30. ∗ EJB Clients are applications that access EJB
components in EJB containers. There are two
possible types. The first category is application
clients which are stand-alone applications
accessing the EJB components using the RMI-
IIOP protocol. The second category of application
clients are components in the web container.
They are java servlets and JSPs which also access
the EJB components via the RMI-IIOP protocol.
EJB Clients
Contact Us On :
www.vibranttechnologies.co.in
31. ∗ The client has a smaller set of concerns then a bean
developer with regard to using EJBs. Basically, he
need to know :
how to find or create a bean,
how to use its methods and
how to release its resources
∗ The client need not worry about the implementation
of the EJB, callbacks that the EJB container will make
on the EJB or nature of the services provided to the
EJB.
The Client Developer’s View
Contact Us On :
Vibranttechnologies.co.in
32. ∗ Home Interface : It is primarily for the life cycle
operations of the bean: creating, finding, and
removing EJBs. The home interface is not
associated with a particular bean, just with a type
of bean.
∗ Remote Interface : It is for business methods.
Logically, it represents a particular bean on the
server. The remote interface also provides some
infrastructure methods associated with a bean
instance, rather than a bean type.
EJB’s interface
Contact Us On :
www.vibranttechnologies.co.in
33. ∗ A client programmer will acquire an EJB’s
home interface through JNDI, and they use
this home interface to :
Sample client application
pseudo code
Create or find
instance of bean
Execute methods Reference
(Handle)
Remove bean

36. ∗ Main responsibility is write business logic and
structure the code in a particular structure. The
structure has 4 files, the home interface, remote
interface, business logic class file and the XML
file. The XML file called the deployment
descriptor, contains the structural information
about the bean, declares the bean’s external
dependencies and specifies certain information
about how services such as transaction and
security work.

48. Three classes of objects in MVC architecture:
∗ Model : This is the data and business-logic
component. It can serve multiple views.
∗ View : This is the presentation component or the user-
interface component. There can be different
presentations of a single model.
∗ Controller : This is the component that responds to
user input. Translates user-interface events into
changes to the model and defines the way the user-
interface reacts to those events.

50. ∗ UML use cases: UML is the Unified Modeling
Language, the standard language for expressing the
model of the software system that we intend to build.
∗ Use cases are subset of UML that expresses the
functionality of the software to be delivered. Use
cases describe what to do, but not how to do it.
Design of the EJB Tier
Contact Us On :
www.vibranttechnologies.co.in
51. ∗ Interface Objects : The interface object is responsible
for controlling access to the EJB tier from any client.
An interface object should always be represented by a
session bean in the implementation.
Ex : controller servlet for the web application’s model-
view-controller architecture.
Analysis Objects
Contact Us On :
www.vibranttechnologies.co.in
52. ∗ Control objects provide services to the application.
They model functionality that is not naturally
associated with a particular entity or interface.
Control objects should be represented by session
beans in the implementation.
Control Objects
Contact Us On :
www.vibranttechnologies.co.in
53. ∗ Entity objects model those business objects that
should maintain their state after the use case
completes. This means they represent data in the
database. Entity beans are often represented by
entity beans in the implementation model.
Entity Objects

54. ∗ Consider the case of a company that develops
products, takes orders for those products, and
then manufactures and ships them.
∗ Actors in the company : An engineer, a web
customer, a phone operator who takes orders
from a catalog, floor manager who manages the
manufacturing process, a crew member that
actually builds the product ordered and a
manager who tracks overdue orders.
