This book delivers complete, focused review for Sun’s new Sun Certified Enterprise Architect (SCEA) for Java EE certification exam–straight from two of the exam’s creators!

• Understanding system architecture and its goals
• Decomposing larger systems into components organized by tiers or layers
• Addressing requirements for scalability, maintainability, reliability, availability, extensibility, performance, and security
• Building effective web (presentation) tiers, and analyzing tradeoffs associated with using web frameworks
• Leveraging EJB 3’s enhancements for business tier development
• Covering new enhancements in the JEE 5 platform
• Choosing and architecting the best integration and messaging components for your system
• Using the Java security model to enforce confidentiality, integrity, authorization, authentication, and non-repudiation
• Using the most powerful and useful Java EE architecture patterns
• Documenting Java EE architectures through visual models and narratives

The authors also present detailed guidance for handling every element of the SCEA exam–including your development and defense of a complete real-world architectural solution.
