Sun Microsystems is a multinational vendor of computers, computer software and hardware, and information technology services.
An application written for the Internet, including those built with Java technologies such as JavaServer Pages and servlets, as well as those built with non-Java technologies such as CGI and Perl.
Industry:Computer
An application that exists in a distributed environment, such as the Internet. A Web service accepts a request, performs its function based on the request, and returns a response. The request and the response can be part of the same operation, or they can occur separately, in which case the consumer does not need to wait for a response. Both the request and the response usually take the form of XML, a portable data-interchange format, and are delivered over a wire protocol, such as HTTP.
Industry:Computer
An application that allows manipulation of data (e.g., what-if analysis and forecasting) from other applications. This is a type of Decision Support System (DSS) that creates new authoritative data that can be used in other operational applications.
Industry:Computer
An application made up of distinct components running in separate runtime environments, usually on different platforms connected via a network. Typical distributed applications are two-tier (client-server), three-tier (client-middleware-server), and multitier (client-multiple middleware-multiple servers).
Industry:Computer
An application developer who produces enterprise bean classes, remote and home interfaces, and deployment descriptor files, and packages them in an EJB JAR file.
Industry:Computer
An API that provides naming and directory functionality.
Industry:Computer
An API that allows applications and J2EE servers to access transactions.
Industry:Computer
An API is a semi-formal description of standard inputs and outputs supported by a particular application, service, or protocol.
Industry:Computer
An API for processing XML documents. JAXP leverages the parser standards SAX and DOM so that you can choose to parse your data as a stream of events or to build a tree-structured representation of it. JAXP supports the XSLT standard, giving you control over the presentation of the data and enabling you to convert the data to other XML documents or to other formats, such as HTML. JAXP provides namespace support, allowing you to work with schema that might otherwise have naming conflicts.
