Presentation Overview:
EJB 3 and the Spring Framework: A Comparative Analysis
The recent years have seen the Spring Framework displace EJB2 as the default middleware platform for many enterprise Java developers. EJB 3 is a huge leap forward from yesteryears heavyweight EJB development model. However, are the improvements to EJB 3 enough to change the enterprise Java landscape yet again?
This session offers a comparative analysis of EJB 3 and the Spring Framework to see how they really stack up with each other. The analysis takes a holistic view covering both development and architectural concerns. The session will chart different courses of action depending on what is important for your application. A comparison matrix will help you decide whether you should integrate parts of EJB 3 with Spring, use EJB 3 with some Spring features, move to EJB 3 altogether or use Spring without EJB 3.
