2. Project Summary

2.1. Project Description:

Enterprise JavaBeans(EJB) is an architecture for the development and deployment of component-based business applications. Applications written using the Enterprise JavaBeans architecture are scalable, transactional, and multi-user secure.

The EJB container in GlassFish V3 implements the latest EJB 3.1 specification and provides full backward compatibility with previous GlassFish product releases. The one exception is cluster related features. Clustering support will be added in a follow-on release.

The EJB container in GlassFish V3 is targeting only the requirements of the EJB 3.1 Specification. There are no new product-specific features planned for this release.

2.2. Risks and Assumptions:

  • Assumptions: Same level of EJB support as in GlassFish V2, except for clustering support.
  • Risks: We have not yet implemented the EJB 3.1 Embeddable API. It's possible we'll need to define some optional product-specific properties to control ejb container initialization.
