Server-Side Java Programming with Servlets and JSPs


Course #
JV-391

Type Instructor-Led

Category Technical

Length
5 Days


Summary
This course covers the Java technologies used to develop Java Web applications.
The key topics discussed are Java Servlets, JavaServer Pages (JSP) and XML.
Students will learn: the details of developing and deploying servlets and JSP pages,
how to design Java Web applications using the Model-View-Controller (MVC)
design, how JavaBeans fit into the MVC design, using JDBC and JavaBeans to
create Data Access Objects. Students will learn how to deploy and administer Java
Web applications on Apache Tomcat using the mySQL database.
