Introduction to Java EE

In this 2 part course we'll go over the fundamentals of Java EE and learn how to package & deploy an app.

Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) is a widely used enterprise computing platform developed under the Java Community Process. The platform provides an API and runtime environment for developing and running enterprise software, including network and web services, and other large-scale, multi-tiered, scalable, reliable, and secure network applications.

This course will provide students with an overview of Java EE and will show some details of its programming model. You'll learn about what Java EE is, how it compares to the Java language, should you transition to it, and which type of application would benefit from it.

In part two of the course, you'll learn how to package & deploy an app. We'll explain how to package your application correctly and reviews three different options: deployment to a local environment with glassfish, deploying to the cloud with Azure and AWS, and deploying to Docker containers. Learn about the typical uses and benefits of each option, so you can pick the best strategy for your workflow and your end user.
