Introduction

Sams Teach Yourself BEA WebLogic Server 7.0 in 21 Days is a step-by-step guide that explains how to develop applications on the most widely used application server in the industry, the WebLogic application server from BEA systems. WebLogic Server 7.0 provides across-the-board support for the entire suite of J2EE 1.3 technologies, including the newly introduced Web Services. The book is modeled on the well-known Teach Yourself series from Sams Publishing and will provide the reader with a 21-day course to learn and use the exciting features of WebLogic Server 7.0.

This Book Is for You

We have made this book as useful as possible for Java developers to begin their exploration of WebLogic Server. In order to obtain maximum utility from this book, you should have experience or familiarity with servlets, JavaServer Pages, and Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) technologies and have an interest in learning more about the WebLogic application server. Java developers who need conceptual and practical, hands-on experience developing applications using the WebLogic application server will gain a great deal from this book. However, this is not the book's only intended audience -professionals and consultants will also find this book useful because they will gain conceptual familiarization with the different powerful features provided by WebLogic Server 7.0.

Because WebLogic Server supports a whole range of Java technologies, the lessons in this book, called days, can get a little complicated. We do not want you to feel lost, so we have used an incremental learning approach in this book. The initial sessions aim to familiarize you with the simpler Java technologies that WebLogic Server supports. In the later days, you will take up the more complex technologies, by which time you will be familiar with how to develop and deploy applications in WebLogic Server.
