Presentations
Spring+JPA+Hibernate: Standards Meeting Productivity for Java Persistence
Well the standards created EntityBeans.... yea. and the community created Hibernate. Fortunately the standards body learned some lessons and created JPA. JPA requires a vendor implementation and none make a better choice then Hibernate. Combined with Spring this trio is a powerhouse when it comes to developer productivity on applications requiring persistence.
This session will look at in detail the persistence capabilities of the latest Spring 2.5 and how to provide data access capabilities, including nicely added features for unit tests. We'll focus the persistence discussion on JPA and examine a number of ORM mapping scenarios and how JPA maps to them. We'll focus on the spring integration including transactional capabilities.
Spring 2.5 - Spring without XML
Spring 2.5 is brand spanking new, with a number of fantastic features. With growth of large and complex Spring applications which struggle with xml manageability and with the added pressure of Guice and SEAM there is a push for less XML, with solution leaning towards annotations. Spring 2.5 adds to the toolset provided in Spring 2.0 to provide a development environment where XML is greatly reduced... or eliminated if you so choose.
The session walks through the new Spring 2.5 enhancements, then dives deep into annotation oriented injection. The demonstrations include standard applications as well as a look at the new Spring MVC.
Architecture and Scaling
Scale... what is scale... how do you applications that are scalable. How do you know if the application scales?
This session will look at server topologies and state management and how it affects scale. We'll detail a number of metrics to know and observe. In addition tools of the trade will be demonstrated such as jmeter.
7 Habits of Highly Effective Developers
Thoughts lead to words, words lead to action, actions lead to habits. In this session we'll sharpen the development saw in the process of understanding what makes a hyper-productive programmer. The focus will consist of developer habits and development processes.
As described in the book "7 Habits for Highly Effective People", there are habits which are characteristic of highly effective people. Clearly there are hyper-productive developers which distinguish themselves from the development pack? what is it that makes the difference? What are the habits and practices of highly effective developers?
This session will focus on individual developer habits, as well as team practices and the processes which result in high quality running software.
Hacking - The Dark Arts
A live Hacking demonstration exposing the tools and techniques used by Hackers.
A look at the growing space referred to as ethical hacking or penetration testing. We'll look at example attacks which include: Client-side exploits Sql-Injections Brute force attacks Man-in-the-middle attacks Key logging

With over 3 million users/developers, Spring Framework is the leading “out of the box” Java framework. Spring addresses and offers simple solutions for most aspects of your Java/Java EE application development, and guides you to use industry best practices to design and implement your applications.
The release of Spring Framework 3 has ushered in many improvements and new features. Spring Recipes: A Problem-Solution Approach, Second Edition continues upon the bestselling success of the previous edition but focuses on the latest Spring 3 features for building enterprise Java applications. This book provides elementary to advanced code recipes to account for the following, found in the new Spring 3:
- Spring fundamentals: Spring IoC container, Spring AOP/ AspectJ, and more
- Spring enterprise: Spring Java EE integration, Spring Integration, Spring Batch, jBPM with Spring, Spring Remoting, messaging, transactions, scaling using Terracotta and GridGrain, and more.
- Spring web: Spring MVC, Spring Web Flow 2, Spring Roo, other dynamic scripting, integration with popular Grails Framework (and Groovy), REST/web services, and more.
This book guides you step by step through topics using complete and real-world code examples. Instead of abstract descriptions on complex concepts, you will find live examples in this book. When you start a new project, you can consider copying the code and configuration files from this book, and then modifying them for your needs. This can save you a great deal of work over creating a project from scratch!
What you’ll learn
- How to use the IoC container and the Spring application context to best effect.
- Spring’s AOP support, both classic and new Spring AOP, integrating Spring with AspectJ, and load-time weaving.
- Simplifying data access with Spring (JDBC, Hibernate, and JPA) and managing transactions both programmatically and declaratively.
- Spring’s support for remoting technologies (RMI, Hessian, Burlap, and HTTP Invoker), EJB, JMS, JMX, email, batch, scheduling, and scripting languages.
- Integrating legacy systems with Spring, building highly concurrent, grid-ready applications using Gridgain and Terracotta Web Apps, and even creating cloud systems.
- Building modular services using OSGi with Spring DM and Spring Dynamic Modules and SpringSource dm Server.
- Delivering web applications with Spring Web Flow, Spring MVC, Spring Portals, Struts, JSF, DWR, the Grails framework, and more.
- Developing web services using Spring WS and REST; contract-last with XFire, and contract–first through Spring Web Services.
- Spring’s unit and integration testing support (on JUnit 3.8, JUnit 4, and TestNG).
- How to secure applications using Spring Security.
Who this book is for
This book is for Java developers who would like to rapidly gain hands-on experience with Java/Java EE development using the Spring framework. If you are already a developer using Spring in your projects, you can also use this book as a reference—you’ll find the code examples very useful.
