Seam in Action

JBoss Seam is an exciting new application framework based on the Java EE platform that is used to build rich, web- based business applications. Seam is rapidly capturing the interest of Java enterprise developers because of its focus on simplicity, ease of use, transparent integration, and scalability. Seam in Action offers a practical and in-depth look at JBoss Seam. The book puts Seam head-to-head with the complexities in the Java EE architecture. The author presents an unbiased view of Seam from outside the walls of RedHat/JBoss, focusing on such topics as Spring integration and deployment to alternative application servers to steer clear of vendor lock-in. By the end of the book, you should expect to not only gain a deep understanding of Seam, but also come away with the confidence to teach the material to others.

His presentation at JavaOne 2009 earned him the JavaOne Rock Star award. But he's best known by colleagues for his passionate work using technologies that include Java frameworks (Seam, CDI, Weld, JSF, EJB 3, JPA, Hibernate, Spring), testing frameworks (JUnit, TestNG, Selenium), JavaScript and DOM scripting, CSS and page layouts, Maven 2, Ant, Groovy, and many others.
