Lightweight application frameworks are all the rage in the enterprise Java community in the past couple of years. From the pioneering Spring and Hibernate frameworks, to the infusion of technologies like aspect-oriented programming and metadata annotation, to the new standard EJB 3.0 (...
Today's web developers have a lot of choices when it comes to web application platforms. Among them, Java EE has always stood out as a 'scalable' solution -- it may not be the easiest platform to prototype a web site, but it protects your software investment over longer terms. For inst...
One-time password (OTP) based two-factor authentication solutions are commonly used to secure VPNs, web sites, and online transactions. They are much more secure than authentication methods based on static passwords. In fact, the US government mandates that all online banking services ...
Annotation is a new Java language feature introduced in JDK 5.0. It has quickly become one of the most popular, and yet most controversial, language feature in core Java. New Java frameworks, such as EJB 3.0 and Hibernate 3.0, make extensive use of annotations to eliminate the excessiv...
I had the honor to have the 'Father of the Nokia Series 60 UI', Christian Lindholm, write the Foreword for my new book 'Nokia Smartphone Hacks.' Christian's invention, the Nokia navigation key user interface, is used daily by billions of people everyday.
The most important impact Ruby/RoR will have on Java, according to JDJ editorial board member Michael Yuan, is to drive the innovation in Java EE. 'Much the same way C# drives the Java 1.5 innovation. We are already seeing this happening,' Yuan explains.
'Java on mobile phones' has been the hottest topic at the JavaOne conference for the past several years. This year was no exception and a large part of the show floor was designated as the 'Wireless Village.' With tens of billions dollars' worth of Java phones and related services sold...
In the past six months, I had the opportunity to work with two leading firms in the Java world - Nokia and JBoss. Being the world's largest J2ME device vendor and most popular J2EE server developer, respectively, Nokia and JBoss come from the two ends of the Java technology spectrum, w...
Federated identity management across multiple single-sign-on domains is a major challenge for SOA-based solutions to fully realize its business potential. The traditional username/password combination is often too weak to protect the extremely sensitive single-sign-on credentials.
Unlike the wildly successful server-side Java technology, the true 'write once run anywhere' vision has never been achieved for client-side Java. For Java developers offering end-to-end smart client?based SOA solutions, the development process is still 'write once, debug everywhere.'
The biggest announcement from JavaOne, according to Michael Yuan, was that Nokia is building a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) framework on smart mobile phones that could quickly change how an average technology user sees Web services.
On Symbian smartphones such as the Nokia 6600, reports Michael Yuan, the Java runtime does not integrate well with the underlying platform. However with the Nokia 6630, the first consumer phone from Nokia that supports JSR 75, things have finally changed, he says.
Past Wireless Developer of the Year Michael Juntao Yuan is very clear: 'Fancy flashy J2ME games will not do it,' he asserts. The task for the wireless Java developer is more about developing specialized gateway servers and J2ME integration software to incorporate smart mobile front-end...
