A PROOF OF CONCEPT FOR ING BELGIUM

How useful are Enterprise Java Beans (EJB's) in your mission-critical and high-transactional environment?
Which approach is best for persisting your financial data?
Are EJB's powerful enough to support the amount of transactions your applications have to deal with every day?
Is it safer and cheaper to build your own supporting development framework?
What do you win in terms of time to market in case of DAO versus CMP or BMP or perhaps JDO for data persistence?
 
We all heard the myths that veil the J2EE platform. "Java is slow ", "EJB's are difficult and cumbersome", "You better build your own framework instead of using the industry standard", etc.  We believe it is time to finally get rid of those assumptions and provide you with cold hard evidence!
 
No assumptions, no myths, only proof. Real proof by means of real test cases, real experiments, real results.
 
On request of ING Belgium, ACA IT-Solutions and Sun Microsystems conducted a proof of concept regarding different development approaches in J2EE in order to discover which are most useful in financial application implementations. Also, data persistence is a big deal in financial application development and could turn out disastrous when mal-implemented.
 
The results of the investigation are truly interesting because they contradict many of the myths that are out there and manage to stay alive.
ACA IT-Solutions and ING Belgium are willing to unveil and share some of the results with you. This is an invitation to come and see for yourself how you too can profit from making the right choices. See how ING Belgium leveraged this POC to a European level and learn about the consequences this POC had for the internal ING organization.
 
Attend this unique session and go home with actual information, real results, useful tips and answers to the questions that (should) keep you busy.
