Jakarta Enterprise Beans
Jakarta Enterprise Beans are server-side components that encapsulate the business logic of an application. Enterprise beans simplify application development by automatically taking care of transaction management and security. There are two types of enterprise beans: session beans, which perform business logic, and message-driven beans, which act as a message listener.
The following topics will be covered in this chapter:
- Session beans
- Message-driven beans
- Transactions in enterprise beans
- Enterprise bean life cycles
- Enterprise bean timer service
- Enterprise bean security
