Triangle Java Users Group Presents:

JMS Development Patterns

presented by Bobby Woolf

Monday, July 21, 2003
6:30 PM - 9:00 PM
MCNC Auditorium
3021 Cornwallis Road
Research Triangle Park, North Carolina

Abstract:
JMS (the Java Message Service) is the J2EE API for accessing messaging system products like WebSphere MQ, SonicMQ, and JBossMQ. A messaging system connects separate applications asynchronously which enables them to communicate in a highly reliable fashion, even when the applications themselves and the network that connects them is not so reliable. This architecture is an alternative to, and in many ways better than, synchronous application integration technologies like CORBA, RMI, and EJB.

This talk will review design patterns for integrating applications using messaging. These patterns will show how messaging works and how you can best use it on your projects. It is based on the forthcoming book, Enterprise Integration Patterns from Addison-Wesley (Additional Link) and the forthcoming tutorial of the same name at OOPSLA 2003. The talk is intended for experienced J2EE developers who have a basic understanding of what JMS is but want to learn better how to make the best use of it.

About the Speaker:
Bobby Woolf is an independent consultant, local Raleigh resident, and past TriJUG speaker. He has been architecting, designing, and developing enterprise applications since before Java came along, and writing patterns for quite some time too. He is a co-author of The Design Patterns Smalltalk Companion, has contributed chapters to all four Pattern Language of Program Design books, and published "JMS 1.1 simplifies messaging with unified domains" on IBM developerWorks.

Admission:
Paid-up members of TriJUG may attend without additional charge. Non members are asked to pay $5 per meeting. But, if you are either a full time student or unemployed, then we ask only $2 per meeting.

DIRECTIONS to MCNC:
From Raleigh:
Take I-40 West toward Durham and Chapel Hill. You will enter RTP. Where I-40 splits, bear right onto the Durham Freeway North (Highway 147). Take the Cornwallis Road Exit. At the end of the exit ramp, bear right - cross back over the Freeway. MCNC is located approximately 3/4 mile on the right.

From Durham:
Get on the Durham Freeway South (Highway 147). Take the Cornwallis Road exit. At the end of the ramp, bear right - MCNC is approximately 3/4 mile on right.
