Server Side Technologies

Struts:

It is an open source controller framework based on the Front controller pattern.

It is based on Model-View-Controller (MVC) model 2 design paradigm.

Overview of Struts:

1. Client browser

2. Controller

3. Business Logic

4. Model

5. View

Client Browser:

A HTTP request from the client browser creates an event. The Web container responds with a HTTP response.

Controller:

It receives the request from the browser, and makes the decision where to send the request.

ActionServlet, Action, ActionForm and struts-config.xml are the part of Controller.

Business Logic:

The business logic updates the state of the model and helps control the flow of the application.

Model:

A model contains the logic for accessing and manipulating the application data.

It’s services are accessed by the controller. It notifies the view when a state change occurs in the model.

View:

The view is responsible for rendering the state of the model. It modifies itself when a change in the model occurs. It forwards user input to the controller.

Advantages of using MVC design pattern:

Reusable Expressive

Advantages of using Struts:

Centralized File-Based Configuration Form Field Validation Consistent Approach Front Controller Pattern Robust and light weight framework

Application Server

JBoss Application Server: It is an open source Java EE – based application server. It operates on any operating system that supports Java. It provides the

-- EJB container

-- Java Management Extension(JMX) infrastructure

-- JBossMQ for JMS messaging

-- JBossTX, for JTA/JTS transactions

-- JBossCX for JCA Connectivity.

-- support for web components, such as servlets and JSP pages.

Advantages of using JBoss:

Dynamic and expandable application server. Open source. Robust and scalable. Easiest to install, update, and use. Excellent documentation.

Client side technologies

Adobe Flex:

Flex is a free developer toolkit for building Rich Internet Applications.

It includes classes for UI controls, containers, managers, remote procedure calls, formatters, validators, and utilities.

Flex uses CSS for styling of components/applications. To include the rich content, a SWF file is created on compiling

the flex application. Flex applications are created using two languages:

Action Script and MXML.

During compilation the MXML is converted to ActionScript which is then compiled into bytecode (SWF).

Flex applications can run on top of any web server, application server, and database server.

Flex applications communicate with back-end servers using direct socket connections or through HTTP.

Flex is very good for interactive, media, and data-centric applications.

Advantages of using Flex:

Flex 3 Beta 3 is open source under Mozilla Public License. Free SDK with command line compiler and debugger. Support for AIR. UI Components are amazing

Excellent standard components. Open source libraries like flexlib are great.

Large community of Flex developers. Excellent documentation from Adobe.

Database

Oracle 10g:

Oracle Database 10g reduces the time, cost, and complexity of database management.

It provides features such as

Automated Database Diagnostic Monitor

Automated Shared Memory Tuning

Automated Storage Management

Automated Disk Based Backup and Recovery. It also provisions CPU and data.
