SCEA - Carving a well qualified J2EE Architect

Sun Microsystems offers many certifications starting from programmer level to architect level. SCEA (Sun Certified Enterprise Architect) certification is designed for enterprise architects responsible for building high scale enterprise applications or who wish to be prospective architects.

The certification exam tests candidate’s architectural knowledge in and out. A Software Architect is the technical boss of software systems and he should act like a software doctor to resolve the issues. A basic difference between a developer and an architect is the way they design the application. Developer may not think about the scalability, maintainability, performance, etc for long run. But architect always foresees the application’s future expectations about performance, scalability, etc.

What are the qualifications required to become a J2EE Architect?

I would say he/she should be a Sun Certified J2EE Architect. Because it comprises of all the necessary qualification required for a Technical Architect required for J2EE assignment. I love the way the SCEA Part 2 and Part 3 designed.

The following are the interesting topics that SCEA Exam covers:

SCEA Part 1

Concepts - Tests your modeling language skills (UML)

Common architectures - Tests the skills in evaluation of enterprise application tiers

Legacy connectivity - Tests the architectural solution knowledge to connect J2EE with any legacy systems

EJB - Tests the design and basic API knowledge in EJB

EJB Container model - Tests the knowledge in the container architecture

Protocols - Tests the knowledge in the area of choosing the right protocol for a business problem

Applicability of J2EE - Tests the design decision knowledge about J2EE technologies

Patterns - Tests the knowledge in design patterns

Messaging - Tests the knowledge in synchronous and asynchronous message architecture

Internationalization - Tests your Java knowledge to implement internationalization

Security - Tests various kinds of enterprise security including firewalls and DMZ

SCEA Part 2

A business problem will be given to you in the form of use case diagrams, business domain model, and statement format. The requirements will encompass both Functional and Non-Functional requirements. You are requested to come up with an architecture for the given business problem to meet both the functional and non-functional requirements.

It is a very challenging experience to get to know about J2EE Architecture best practices. Once you have completed your assignment, you need to upload your assignment into Sun and it will be manually evaluated by technical authors.

SCEA Part 3

This is another stimulating test to verify your architectural knowledge about design decisions. Architecture can be implemented in many ways with different design decisions. The questions will be on why you have chosen this way and why not the other way. You need to answer with brief explanation. If you have completed Part 1 and Part 2, Part 3 will be straightforward and very easy to *****.

The SCEA exam does not require any pre-certifications from Sun Microsystems. So, if you decide to take Sun J2EE Architect certification, you can very well start without any prerequisite.

How to start, where to start?

Go through the exam objectives from Sun website.

http://www.sun.com/training/certification/java/java_archj2ee.html

Estimate the time required to prepare SCEA Exam (EPractize Labs SCEA Preparation Time Calculator).

Plan for your certification process

When to take Part 1, when to take Part 2 and Part 3 is based on your preferences

Practize for your certification process

Use SCEA Part 1 Exam EPractize Labs and SCEA Part 2 & Part 3 Exam EPractize Labs to get the real feel of the exam.

Take the actual exam once you get confidence from sample mock exams.

SCEA Certification Benefits

For the Individual

The certification empowers in driving J2EE Architecture for enterprise applications

SCEA certified architects can easily evaluate various design options, frameworks, software COTS components, etc

Being a certified architect helps you to improve your career potential, gain more respect, boost up your job security and opportunities.

With SCEA certification, you become more competitive in the job market.

For the Organization

Enables management to distinguish SCEA holders as professionals who can act as Technical Architect for new or existing initiatives.

Helps in deciding the best architecture, frameworks and software COTS components based on project budget to minimize cost

More confidence to drive technical decisions with business partners.

Enables project team to get best practices guidance from a qualified architect.

Don H asked:


After signing a contact with Toll Brothers to build a home on a lot in a new community, the plans came back from the their architects and they determined that they can not build the house the same size we agreed to on the lot we agreed on. Can I void this contract? I would not have bought this house if I was limited to the size that they say it has to now be. This seems like a bait and switch.
Response to last reply…. No I am not looking for a way out. Actually we became very enthused about our new house. When we signed the contract we signed it because we were able to make changes to the model based on the same changes they had made on a model they had used in Texas. Now we are faced with having to go back to the dimesions of the model which I would not have bought as the size of several bedrooms were just too small. The worst part of it is that the living room was to have been bumped out 4 feet and know has to be reduced, which makes one set of the bay windows in the living room look right into the screened lanai area. So as much as you might think I just wanted out, that is just not the case.

ABSTRACT

Dojo is arguable the most feature-complete ajax toolkit today. Using Dojo’s data stores to create a clean separation of concerns from the server-side, this talk gives practical advice for impementing all rendering of data in the browser, leading to a much thinner server, which focus on business-logic only.

Speaker: Peter Svensson
Peter is a Java and Ajax developer active in the Dojo Ajax community. His controversial Thin Server Architecture is not a new idea, but hopes to save time and complexity from todays fast-paced web application development schedules.

He lives in Stockholm Sweden in a beautiful house house with his wife, two kids and three cats. He has too many side projects, but is always open for new ones. He probably reads more SF than you do (Since he doesn’t have a drivers license).
