Product Description

Product Description

This is the first authoritative, authorized study guide for Sun's challenging new Sun Certified Enterprise Architect for Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition Technology exams. Written by the exam's lead developer and assessor, it offers start-to-finish guidance and background for designing effective J2EE architectures -- and comprehensive preparation for all three exam elements you need to pass: Sun's multiple-choice exam, architecture/design project, and essay exam. Sun Microsystems Senior Java Architect Mark Cade begins with an overview of system architecture and its goals -- including structure, behavior, usage, functionality, performance, resilience, reuse, and comprehensibility. Cade shows how to document J2EE architectures through visual models and narratives -- creating System Requirements and System Architecture documents that act as blueprints for the entire development process. He introduces each of Sun's most powerful and useful J2EE architecture patterns; walks you through key security and internationalization issues, presents a full chapter on HTTP and other protocols for distributed systems development; and concludes with a start-to-finish case study. From legacy connectivity to messaging, firewall issues to servlets, the book covers every exam objective -- and every skill needed by J2EE enterprise architects.

3.0 out of 5 stars The title is misleading, 12 Feb 2003
This should really be called a revision guide, the entire book is under 200 pages in length, all of the GOF patterns are covered in about 30 pages, and the entire UML is covered in 20 pages. If you are looking for a book to teach you everything you need to know in order to pass the exam then this is not the book for you. What this book does do very well is to explain all the exam requirements and give you a good idea about what you need to learn.

4.0 out of 5 stars Its a guide, and its just that, 1 Oct 2003
By A Customer
I am quite happy with this book – it’s a good starting point, and authors lets the reader know that the level of expertise is expected from them by posting sample questions at the end of every chapter. The sample questions actually requires a lot more reading than the chapter it precedes, and that just tells the reader that this book itself is not sufficient, unlike Certification Study guides for Programmer (SCJP) certification.

3.0 out of 5 stars An okay book but..., 16 Sep 2002
By A Customer
This is a very easy book to read and gives you a good basic understanding of what is required in the exam. It also has a very good case study to help in preparing for stage 2.

It however fails to cover certain areas which are a must for the exam e.g. legacy access techniques such as screenscrapers and object mapping, security networking techniques such as VPNs and DPNs. It doesn't even mention JMS at all, and this is meant to be a key objective!! The word "guide" therefore has to be taken very literally, and the book shouldn't in anyway be compared to the comprehensive coverage given in the"Complete Java2 Certification" guide. If this is the only book you want to buy for the exam, be prepared for quite a bit of surfing.
