JSP services

Add onto your development team with experts from Schrödinger. The over years collected know-how about Java back end applications, which every Schrödinger team member has got, will be integrated into your team in a fast and friendly manner. Through the close contact to the user community of Schrödinger, Micromata has got insight in hundreds of Java projects – starting with small web presence, which are activated though JSTL and ending with J2EE projects, which communicate with users over JSP and Java Server Faces. These insights and feedbacks give the Micromata team a fantastic overview over the factors of successes and failures of Java projects. Use that knowledge – use us!

Just as for all server applications there is a range of applications for tomcat, which are covered through detailed configuration management. The correct choice of a configuration offers a remarkable increase in security and reliability. The effective integration in the server infrastructure that is provided ensures the desired operation.

Use the unrivalled price performance ratio of the two most famous Apache projects in their synergy. The capacities of Apache HTTPDs and that of Tomcat somewhat overlap. The Apache group would not be as unique if it was not possible through (a little bit of) configurations work to bundle the strengths of both projects:
Tomcat

• As the by SUN chosen reference platform Tomcat fulfils 4.x the servlet specification 2.3 and the JSP specification 1.2
• 100% pure Java
• Database access via JDBC

• Multiple threads
• Native SSL Implementation
• Support of various operating system schedulers
• Secure Daemon behaviour

Tomcat disposes of a clever load distribution mechanism, the so-called workers. These workers run on separate computers. The speed at which the application runs improves tremendously and its availability is increased, because the system identifies a worker that has broken down and distributes the load onto another. The Apache HTTPD(s) take care of the integrity of the sessions – your application will not even notice that it is running in a shared manner.

If several web applications are running on one server, security relevant restrictions of each application are necessary. This is possible through either giving each application its own JVW or through installing so-called security realms in Tomcat. In this way, access to resources of web applications can be limited.

In conjunction with our partners SUN Microsystems and SuSE SUN Microsystems and SuSE we are not only able to calculate the load of a web application, but we also offer to operate and test the application with a simulated demand. Hence, you receive the assurance that your application is prepared for the onrush of your clients.

Almost all JSP applications are provided with contents from a database. Micromata supports reputable German companies with:

• Datenbase administration
• Datenbase tuning
• Datenbase back up concepts
• Datenbase reflection
• Datenbase load distribution
• Datenbase migration

In order to ensure short response times or to serve a large amount of customers you do not always need expensive hardware. Optimising existing resources can work miracles. With the Tool Java Profiler Micromata created a tool that can be used for the quick and clear analysis of the memory and the capacity of the driver of your application. Components discovered in this way can hence be optimised in order to let your application continue to scale.

We love to teach our know-how to your staff. We feel it is an obligation for us to introduce your engineers to each service we listed here. Should you need a customised training course apart from that in order to prepare your staff members for the next project, then you are welcome to discuss the scale and scope of a profound training course with us. Training can be offered either at your location or at ours.

As a system vendor Micromata is very familiar with the design and realisation of back end systems. For questions regarding "web services, SOAP, JDO, Java server pages, JDBC, J2EE, websphere, weblogic, SunONE, Oracle 9i, Java server faces, XML, JBoss, JXTA, JNDI" the Micromata team will be available at all times.

In the event that during JSP projects the work of the design team should be separated from that of the business logistics team, SUN Microsystems suggests the application of taglibs for java solutions.

Within JSP complex business logic, session management or application control respectively is addressed with the help of Java beans. These beans are reusable components that are sufficient for a well-defined application programming interface (API).

With J2EE SUN offers a platform in which business applications can be integrated with an efficiency that never existed before. The independence from the manufacturer of the middleware or of the server hardware is incomparable. Thus the customer is offered a great selection of alternatives within the J2EE technology. If you are interested in the planning or realisation of J2EE projects and need support, do not hesitate to contact Micromata.

If a web application is furnished with a huge number of independent forms, a simple JSP coding can appear very complex. For these cases, the components frame work of Struts of the Jakarta group was designed. It displays the applications in a model-view-controller pattern and thus enables a better control of JSP.

From the very new Java Server Faces technology a revolution regarding reusability and serviceability of web applications is expected.
