Hi everybody,
So far I have been working on core
java and some JDBC/Servlet/JSP stuffs.
I am keen to broaden my knowledge on Enterprise &
J2EE sides.
I searched in all forums and gathered the following.
1) EJB 3.0 is the latest on EJB. Best book to start with is EJB 3 in Action
2) Spring/Hibernate are excellent frameworks and good to learn and get involved.
My questions are,
1) How JPA different from EJB/Spring/Hibernate? How do they fit together in bigger picture?
2) If I need to learn JPA, what book/besk links do you suggest for a beginner, but keen to learn and practice to an expert level?
3) For frameworks like Spring/Hibernate, which books do you suggest, again for a beginner, but keen to learn and practice to an expert level?
All answers are much appreciated.
This is my first post in Java Ranch as I have joined a couple of days ago
So if I have mistakenly posted or done anything wrong then please notify.
Thanks
