    Traditional Solutions in JEE and Java

    The platform was known as Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition or J2EE until the name was changed to Java EE in version 1.5. Java EE includes several API specifications, such as JDBC, RMI, e-mail, JMS, web services, XML, etc, and defines how to coordinate them. Java EE also features some specifications unique to Java EE for components. These include Enterprise JavaBeans, Servlets, Portlets (following the Java Portlet specification), Java Server Pages and several web service technologies. This allows developers to create enterprise applications that are portable and scalable, and that integrate with legacy technologies.

    The J2EE platform simplifies enterprise applications by basing them on standardized, modular components, by providing a complete set of services to those components, and by handling many details of application behavior automatically, without complex programming. J2EE is portable, scalable and functional to build stable and cutting-edge applications, without having to be locked in to any single proprietary platform.

    At WebbieFourth we realize that J2EE is the de facto standard for Enterprise Applications used by enterprises in all Verticals from Retail, Insurance, Banking, Finance, and Manufacturing to Health Care. We are glad to say that we have some of best and brightest minds in this highly robust, agile and most sought after Enterprise Platform. Our expertise in J2EE is second to none, we have designed and implemented some of most complex projects in Banking, Retail and Health Care using J2EE.

    With years of experience in successfully providing Custom Software Development solutions for clients across the globe, we at WebbieFourth have honed our processes and skills to cater to your specific business needs. Contact us for more information on J2EE solutions.

    Cloud Computing and Virtualized Clustered Solutions

    Cloud Computing: Web-Based Applications That Change the Way You Work and Collaborate Online. Every few years there seems to be a new buzz word within our industry. Service Orientated Architecture was renamed to introduce a fancy word to involve Clouds. Cloud Computing is the buzz within software circles, especially among software architects which means web-based applications that can be hosted outside a corporation's data-center and accessed anywhere by anyone.

    The Cloud is nothing new. It’s just yet another buzzword for something you’re already quite familiar with – the Internet. The only technical difference between the Cloud (err, the Internet) and the Internet is how you use it. In the Cloud, all of your tools and information reside “out there” on the Internet rather than on your local machine. This allows you to easily access your files from anywhere and from almost any device with a browser and Internet connection. If your computer crashes or is otherwise damaged, all of your tools and data are safe. In other words, moving to the Cloud is simply a matter of changing where you save your data and how you access it.

    Moving forward, forget that you have a hard drive. Close your eyes and take a moment to clear it from your mind… Breathe… Relax, you can still keep your memory cards and USB sticks; people still need to carry data with them every once in a while.

    Public and Private Cloud

    Whether a public cloud or private cloud, everyone agrees that cloud computing key benefits include scalability, instant provisioning, virtualized resources and ability to expand the server base quickly.

    The majority of public cloud deployments are generally used for web servers or development systems where security and compliance requirements of larger organizations and their customers is not an issue. Private cloud computing, on the other hand, by definition is a single-tenant environment where the hardware, storage and network are dedicated to a single client or company.

    The public cloud is defined as a multi-tenant environment, where you buy a “server slice” in a cloud computing environment that is shared with a number of other clients or tenants.

    Public clouds such as Amazon EC2 and Rackspace Cloud have a number of trade-offs:
  • Utility Model – Public Clouds typically deliver a pay-as-you-go model, where you pay by the hour for the compute resources you use. This is an economical way to go if you’re spinning up & tearing down development servers on a regular basis.
  • No Contracts – Along with the utility model, you’re only paying by the hour – if you want to shut down your server after only 2 hours of use, there is no contract requiring your ongoing use of the server.
  • Shared Hardware – Because the public cloud is by definition a multi-tenant environment, your server shares the same hardware, storage and network devices as the other tenants in the cloud. Meeting compliance requirements, such as PCI or SOX, is not possible in the public cloud.
  • No Control of Hardware Performance – In the public cloud, you can’t select the hardware, cache or storage performance (SATA or SAS). Your virtual server is placed on whatever hardware and network, the public cloud provider designates for you.
  • Self Managed – with the high volume, utility model, self managed systems are required for this business model to make sense. Advantage here for the technical buyers that like to setup and manage the details of their servers. Disadvantage for those that want a fully managed solution.

    The majority of public cloud deployments are generally used for web servers or development systems where security and compliance requirements of larger organizations and their customers is not an issue.

    Private cloud hosting, on the other hand, by definition is a single-tenant environment where the hardware, storage and network are dedicated to a single client or company.

    Private cloud computing also has a number of trade-offs:
  • Security – Because private clouds are dedicated to a single organization, the hardware, data storage and network can be designed to assure high levels of security that cannot be accessed by other clients in the same data center.
  • Compliance – Sarbanes Oxley, PCI and HIPAA compliance can not be delivered through a public cloud deployment. Because the hardware, storage and network configuration is dedicated to a single client, compliance is much easier to achieve.
  • Customizable – Hardware performance, network performance and storage performance can be specified and customized in the private cloud.
  • Hybrid Deployments – If a dedicated server is required to run a high speed database application, that hardware can be integrated into a private cloud, in effect, hybridizing the solution between virtual servers and dedicated servers. This can’t be achieved in a public cloud.
    •

    As opposed to public clouds, private clouds are not delivered through a utility model or pay-as-you-go basis because the hardware is dedicated. Private clouds are generally preferred by mid and large size enterprises because they meet the security and compliance requirements of these larger organizations and their customers.

    Secure by Design

    At WebbieForuth we start by thinking about how secure a solution is needed to be, before asking what services are provided or how the final product should look like. Enough budget and time are spent to analyze and design the software product or service, from security perspective. Utilizing attack modeling and common security vulnerabilities while designing a system usually helps produce a secure implementation. It is better to treat security as a first stage and essential system requirement rather than spending time and money to plug security holes when the system goes life. Patching for security is an indicator of poor security design. WebbieFourth helps your organization break this pattern.
