| Part 1: Overview of Servlets and JSP Java Server Pages (JSP) is a technology that lets you mix regular, static HTML with dynamically-generated HTML. Many Web pages that are built by CGI programs are mostly static, with the dynamic part limited to a few small locations. |
| Enterprise Java JSPs or Servlets--Which Architecture is Right for You? SINCE THE INTRODUCTION of JSP technology, two architectures have emerged for building server-side Web applications in Java. The first involves JSPs only, and the second uses JSPs and Servlets together. Referred to as Model 1 and Model 2 architectures, respectively, each model has its advantages and disadvantages. The Model 2 architecture has become quite popular recently, and has received a great deal of coverage on the Web and in trade magazines. In fact, many developers mistakenly believe this architecture has replaced the Model 1 architecture and is the "right" way to use JSPs. |
| Design and Implement Servlets, JSPs, and EJBs for IBM WebSphere Application Server This IBM redbook provides design guidelines for developing e-business applications based on servlets, JavaServer Pages (JSP) and Enterprise JavaBean (EJB) technologies. |
| Patterns for e-business: Recommended technology options You can develop interaction controller and page construction logic using either Java servlets or Java Server Pages (JSP) technology. Both of these implementation mechanisms have significant advantages over using CGI-BIN or Web server plugins. You will need to decide whether to use JSPs or servlets or both in your Web application. |
| JSP and Servlets: A powerful pair AS MANY OF you know, Servlet technology arose from the need to replace the Web server CGI with a more efficient, cross-platform mechanism. Servlets are written entirely in the Java TM programming language and often have HTML content embedded within the code. The JavaServer PageTM (JSP) technology takes the alternate approach, providing the developer with the ability to embed special tags and Java programming language code within the HTML. So what is the current state of affairs? |
| Architect's Corner Dynamic servlet to JSP™ page navigation Last year my colleague, Dan Malks, wrote an article exposing the power behind the integration of servlets and JSP technology.1 During about that same time I was using a pattern very similar to Dan's Service to Workers pattern—one in which the service is handled initially by a single servlet, which delegates the processing of the business functionality to a business delegate via a worker bean, and ultimately dispatches to a JSP page for the dynamic generation of the presentation. |
