JavaWorld have a good article on their site this week covering the basics of tuning a J2EE application. They only scratch the surface (in 3 pages) but give some pointers of where to start looking.

They briefly describe server tuning, environment tuning, and database tuning.

TheServerSide.com have a good introductory article on using the Commons Digester to consume data in XML and instantiate object representations of the data on their site here.

Gavin King comments on the EJB3.0 announcement in his blog here.

As the EJB3.0 persistence model becomes more ‘Hibernate-like’, it will be interesting to see where Hibernate goes in the near future.

Following last weeks announcement of some of the details of the upcoming EJB3.0 spec, there is a heated discussion about the benefits and disadvantages of both approaches (with comments from Gavin King on Hibernate thrown into the mix), on TheServerSide.com.
