Overview
The Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 8: Configuration and Deployment course provides students with the skills necessary to install, maintain, tune, and troubleshoot the Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 8 (Application Server) (formerly Sun Open Net Environment [Sun ONE] Application Server 7) in a development environment. The ability to write programs in the Java programming language is not required. However, Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE[TM] platform) technology-based applications are deployed throughout the course to demonstrate various concepts. Students are introduced to the tools that are used to administer and deploy applications to the Application Server. This course also includes the following topics: server architecture, data persistence and transactions, application assembly procedures, sample applications bundled with the Application Server software, the Java Message Service (J.M.S.) and message-driven beans, Java Remote Method Invocation over Internet Inter-ORB Protocol technology (Java RMI-IIOP technology) clients, an introduction to web services development, and application migration.

Objectives

Upon completion of this course, students should be able to:
· Install the Application Server
· Describe the Application Server architecture
· Use the asadmin command-line interface (CLI) utility and the administration console to perform administration tasks
· Deploy J2EE applications on the Application Server
· Configure logging for the Application Server
· Package and deploy web services on the Application Server
· Configure database connectivity for the Application Server
· Implement security for J2EE applications
· Migrate applications to the Application Server
· Troubleshoot Application Server issues

PreRequisites

To succeed fully in this course, students should have:
· Basic UNIX administration skills (Solaris Operating System [Solaris OS] preferred)
· Experience with Standard Query Language (SQL) databases
· Familiarity with the development processes and roles for developing J2EE applications
· Experience with the J2EE 1.3 application programming interface (API) (recommended)
· Knowledge gained from the Sun Java System Application Server 7 courses (IAS-3319 and IAS-4318) (recommended)

Who Can Benefit

Students who can benefit from this course are application developers, technical consultants, and those responsible for designing, developing, and deploying J2EE components and applications on the Application Server.
