Hi Guys ,
I would suggest to go for 483 Although it depends on your Experince and Working Knowledge
The Reason is very simple in
J2EE there are less realted technologies or API's typically RMI, JTA,JAS knowledge is required and you don't need to go in such heavey detail but while working in J2EE XML Deployment Descriptors are heavily used so
you should have at least idea of XML Basics and the second thing is you have some concept of Databases.Simply going for EJB removes a layer of abstraction often called "backend application using XML " which is an abstraction for a person directly starting XML so knowing EJB will resolve this Issue.
The recommended resources which I would like to share are:
Number One:
www.theserverside.com download Mastering EJB by Ed Roman I think its best book also Design
patterns book for EJB is Available for free
Number two:
Read Enterprise Java bean Book by Richard Monson Hafel O'rielly Publisher I think this book is enough for Exam
Number three:
Go through EJB Specification
and do some work on RMI as well
The time you need for running an ejb depends on your Application Server .... I used
Jboss and its really your boss not you to be his boss.I will be going for it soon still waiting for free voucher I passed Sample
