Are You Ready for JavaOne?

Posted by lancea on June 04, 2004 at 02:11 PM | Comments (0)

It is hard to believe that JavaOne is fast approaching. It seems that I just got back from last year's. I am now preparing for this year's event (including finishing my presentation!) and there is a lot to think about:

Where do I stay (and not blow my budget)?
What sessions do i attend in person?
Where should I go to eat?

It looks like another strong year for J2EE related presentations.

If you have not tinkered with the J2EE 1.4 SDK, then you might want to check out:

JavaTM 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EETM) Software Development Kit (J2EE 1.4 SDK) Overview, TS-1951

I am sure you are like me and want to see what the future holds. You can get a glimpse of it from the following J2EE sessions:

J2EETM Platform Version 1.5 and Beyond, TS-3888
Enterprise JavaBeansTM Architecture 3.0, TS-1861
Enterprise JavaBeansTM (EJBTM) Technologies 3.0: Simplifying and Enhancing the EJB Persistence Model, TS-2836
Next-Generation Web Services in the JavaTM Platform, TS-2394
Web Tier State of the Union, TS-2702

A couple of Web Services sessions also caught my fancy:

JavaTM 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EETM) Web Services, TS-1650
Web Services Interoperability and Performance: JavaTM 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EETM) and .NET, TS-2797

Another hot J2EE area this year is Business Integration where there are several presentations to choose from:
