Administer EJB applications
This page provides a starting point for finding information about enterprise beans.
Based on the EJB specification, enterprise beans are Java components that typically implement the business logic of J2EE applications as well as access data.
Subtopics
- Deploy EJB 3.x enterprise beans
- Deploy EJB modules
When you deploy an EJB module, you install that module on a server that has been configured to support deployed modules.
- Administer entity beans
- Administer session beans
- Manage EJB containers
Each application server can have a single Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) container; one is created automatically for you when the application server is created. The following steps are to be performed only as needed to improve performance after the EJB application has been deployed.
- Configure a timer service
We can configure and manage the EJB timer service for a specific EJB container.
- Manage message-driven beans
Manage the Java EE Connector Architecture (JCA) Version 1.5-compliant message-driven beans that you deploy as message endpoints, and we can manage the message listener resources for non-JCA message-driven beans that you deploy against listener ports.
- Administer applications that use the Java Persistence API
