Best Regards, The JUGS Board ---------------------------------------------------------------- Inside JBoss ============ 9.3.06 Technopark Zurich, Room Fortran Travel instructions: <http://www.technopark.ch> > Kontakt > Lageplan SPEAKERS -------- Sacha Labourey, CTO JBoss Christian Bauer, Hibernate Team Bela Ban, Lead JGroups and JBossCache projects AGENDA ------ 14:00 - 14:05: Welcome Silvano Maffeis, JUGS Board 14:05 - 15:20: JBoss Enterprise Middleware Suite Sacha Labourey, CTO JBoss 15:20 - 16:35: Hibernate Christian Bauer, Hibernate Team 16:35 - 17:00: Break 17:00 - 18:15: JBoss Clustering Bela Ban, Lead JGroups and JBossCache projects 18:15 - 18:30: More questions and answers 18:30 - ? : Refreshment ABSTRACTS --------- *Sacha Labourey: JBoss Enterprise Middleware Suite* Many JUGS members have used the JBoss Application Server in one way or another. However, not everybody might be aware of the other "jewels" which are part of the JBoss Enterprise Middleware Suite. JBoss Enterprise Middleware Suite (JEMS) is an extensible and scalable suite of products for creating and deploying e-business applications. JEMS offers cutting-edge technology components which customers can mix-and-match and roll out into their line of business infrastructure - all at zero-cost software licenses. Sacha will talk about those JEMS products and also give a glimpse of what you can expect from JBoss in the future. *Christian Bauer: Hibernate* Christian Bauer will present the technical background behind Hibernate, the most popular persistence solution for Java, and how the project evolved into an EJB 3.0 persistence provider. The significantly improved and simplified EJB entity beans of the new standard, and how object/relational database mapping is handled, are another topic of this presentation. Finally, the new JBoss Seam framework is presented. Seam can greatly simplify and speed up web application development in Java, by introducing a new stateful component concept, based on EJB3 and JavaServer Faces. *Bela Ban: JBoss Clustering* The talk will give an overview of JBoss Clustering. First, we will define what clustering constitutes, and discuss load balancing and failover. Then we will identify what can be clustered, e.g. HTTP sessions, SFSBs, EJBs, and how to configure them for clustering. Finally, we will take a look at the underlying architecture in place to achieve clustering, e.g. JGroups and JBossCache. The attendees should be familiar with J2EE and preferably have used the JBoss application server before.
