Enterprise application development is a gold mine for applications of AOP. There are many crosscutting concerns found in a typical enterprise application, ranging from well-known security and transaction management to application- and technology-specific concerns. Using AOP leads to implementations that are easy to understand and easy to change.

This session shows how to address common problems faced by typical enterprise applications, with a focus on web applications using AOP. It will present examples of applying aspects to persistence, business, and web layer. It will show how to apply aspects synergistically with technologies such as Hibernate, JAAS, JMX and Spring. Many of the examples include reusable portions enabling them to be readily used in your own application.

This session is targeted at developers with familiarity with AOP and enterprise applications. It is recommended to attend the “Introduction to AOP with AspectJ” session or read articles and/or books that introduce AOP and AspectJ prior to attending this session.
