  Definitive, Comprehensive SCEA Exam Prep-Straight from Sun's Exam Developers!

  This book delivers complete, focused review for Sun's new Sun Certified Enterprise Architect (SCEA) for Java EE certification exam-straight from two of the exam's creators! SCEA lead developer/assessor Mark Cade and SCEA lead developer/assessor Humphrey Sheil offer powerful insights, real-world architectural case studies, and challenging sample questions that systematically prepare you for the actual exam. For every question, the authors show why the right answers are right-and why the other answers are wrong. Cade and Sheil cover every SCEA exam topic, skill, and technique, including:

  • Understanding system architecture and its goals
  • Decomposing larger systems into components organized by tiers or layers
  • Addressing requirements for scalability, maintainability, reliability, availability, extensibility, performance, and security
  • Building effective web (presentation) tiers, and analyzing tradeoffs associated with using web frameworks
  • Leveraging EJB 3's enhancements for business tier development
  • Covering new enhancements in the JEE 5 platform
  • Choosing and architecting the best integration and messaging components for your system
  • Using the Java security model to enforce confidentiality, integrity, authorization, authentication, and non-repudiation
  • Using the most powerful and useful Java EE architecture patterns
  • Documenting Java EE architectures through visual models and narratives

  The authors also present detailed guidance for handling every element of the SCEA exam-including your development and defense of a complete real-world architectural solution.
