"State of the union" and future plans


SPEAKER: Sacha Labourey   COMPANY: JBoss Division at Red Hat

Web application development with JBoss Seam

SPEAKER: Christian Bauer   COMPANY: RedHat

Building on the standards JavaServer Faces and EJB 3.0, JBoss Seam unifies component and programming models and delivers a consistent and powerful framework for rapid creation of web applications with Java EE 5.0. Seam simplifies web application development and enables new functionality that was difficult to implement by hand before, such as stateful conversations, multi-window operation, and handling concurrent fine-grained AJAX requests. Seam also unifies and integrates popular open source technologies like Facelets, Hibernate, iText, and Lucene.

Modeling and executing business processes and workflows with JBoss JBPM

SPEAKER: Tom Baeyens   COMPANY: JBoss jBPM

Are you considering developing a homegrown workflow engine? Then you should definitely attend this session first. Java Process Definition Language (jPDL) is a language for expressing long-running processes. Unlike most orchestration technologies, jPDL focuses on plain Java technology and includes sophisticated task management capabilities. Attendees learn in which scenarios jPDL is more appropriate than BPEL or other process languages.

Human tasks and other forms of wait states are typically quite a hassle in server-side programming. Developers have to think in terms of requests and manually maintain the user tasks in a database. In the structure of a server-side application, it's very hard to get a picture of the overview. jPDL gives you back that overview. Handling an insurance claim, submitting and handling an expense note, or going through a lawsuit are good examples of long-running processes. jPDL allows users to express the overall execution of these processes in terms of the JavaBeans architecture, user tasks, and other forms of wait states. These processes can be edited and viewed graphically. jPDL leverages the unified expression language (EL) to easily bind your POJOs to the process flow, and it leverages Hibernate to store the state of the long-running processes in the users' database.

On the one hand, jPDL has all the required features for business process management (BPM), but on the other hand, jPDL is also designed to fit like a glove on standard and enterprise Java applications. Ease of use for developers on the Java platform is often neglected in BPM offerings, and jPDL solves this problem.

Implementing an Open Source SOA: A JBoss Success Story

SPEAKER: Bruno Georges   COMPANY: Red Hat

Glencore has recently reviewed its enterprise middleware systems, and started a migration project to replace it with the JBoss JEMS platform. The main objective of this presentation is to demonstrate the benefits that an Open Source based SOA can bring to the Enterprise. We aim to share some of the experiences learned in designing technical and business services, implementing JBoss products such as JBPM and Web Services to deliver process-driven business value.
