Chapter Review

We covered a lot of ground in this chapter. We started off by reviewing some key concepts of JMS. We spent quite a bit of time talking about the WebLogic JMS provider, covering how it works and what features it provides. After that, we discussed things to consider when designing WebLogic JMS applications. Next, we talked briefly about WebLogic JMS programming and how to best use WebLogic JMS from within J2EE applications. This discussion included the new server-side JMS resource pooling and a discussion of message-driven beans. We finished up the chapter with a discussion of how to integrate WebLogic Server applications with external JMS providers using either the direct or indirect approach to integration. In the next chapter, we will talk in detail about WebLogic Server security.
