Simplicity is the key driving force behind the success of Java. When Dr. Gosling invented the Java language in 1995, the goal was to make life easier for software developers. Java's elegant language design, simple API, and vendor-independence have made it the platform of choice for many developers. However, as Java evolves to address enterprise needs for scalability and flexibility, developer friendliness has taken a back seat. The complex programming model in EJB 2.1 and J2EE 1.4 has hindered Java's adoption, and it's the root cause for many slow-performing and error-prone Java applications.
Fortunately, help is on the way. The upcoming EJB 3.0 and J2EE 1.5 servers greatly simplify enterprise Java development without compromising scalability and flexibility. Unlike many other third-party commercial and open source J2EE alternatives, EJB 3.0 is completely standard-based. There is no vendor lock-in. In fact, I think EJB 3.0 is probably the most significant invention in J2EE's history. EJB 3.0 simplifies application development in the following three key areas:
- EJB 3.0 eliminates the need for excessive and redundant XML-based deployment descriptors. Instead, the bulk of configuration options are specified within the source code as Java annotations. The XML deployment descriptors are still available as an optional choice for administrators who need to override default configuration values at deployment time.
- EJB 3.0 simplifies Object/Relational Mapping (ORM) via a new entity bean model. Java developers only need to work with plain old Java objects (POJOs) and build the domain data model, following sound object-oriented design principals. The mapping between object hierarchy and relational table schemas is transparently handled by the EJB 3.0 server. The EJB 3.0 server also manages database connections, enforces transaction rules, generates database-specific SQL statements, and detects updates to mapped POJOs in the application.
- EJB 3.0 enables new application architectures based on the Dependency Injection design pattern. Resources and services can be declaratively wired into the application via annotations or XML configuration files. That allows developers to build loosely coupled applications.
The result of all this is a simpler and more robust J2EE. The ultimate winners, of course, are Java developers like yourself. If you are interested in learning more about EJB 3.0, please come to our JavaOne sessions led by experts such as Bill Burke, Gavin King, Tom Baeyens, Michael Yuan, and Stan Silvert. If you can't make it to JavaOne, you can see much of our EJB 3.0 related content and demos on our Web site at www.jboss.com/javaone05. Hope to see y'all there!

Modern software design has fundamentally changed how we manage applications, causing many to turn to containers as the new virtual machine for resource management. As container adoption grows beyond stateless applications to stateful workloads, the need for persistent storage is foundational - something customers routinely cite as a top pain point. In his session at @DevOpsSummit at 21st Cloud Expo, Bill Borsari, Head of Systems Engineering at Datera, explored how organizations can reap the benefits of the cloud without losing performance as containers become the new paradigm.
