Java Platform, Enterprise Edition or Java EE ( formerly known as Java
2 Platform, Enterprise Edition or J2EE up to version 1.5 ), is a programming platform—part
of the Java Platform—for developing and running distributed multitier architecture
Java applications, based largely on modular software components running on an application
server. The Java EE platform is defined by a specification. Similar to other Java
Community Process specifications, Java EE is also considered informally to be a
standard because providers must agree to certain conformance requirements in order
to declare their products as Java EE compliant; albeit with no ISO or ECMA standard.
Java EE includes several API specifications, such as JDBC, RMI, e-mail, JMS, web
services, XML, etc, and defines how to coordinate them. Java EE also features some
specifications unique to Java EE for components. These include Enterprise Java Beans,
servlets, portlets (following the Java Portlet specification), JavaServer Pages
and several web service technologies. This allows the developer to create an enterprise
application that is portable between platforms and scalable, while integrating with
legacy technologies. Other added bonuses are, for example, that the application
server can handle the transactions, security, scalability, concurrency and management
of the components that are deployed to it, meaning that the developers can concentrate
more on the business logic of the components rather than the lower level maintenance
tasks.
