Java EE Made Easy - Patterns & Architecture [2016] (Udemy.com)

Ranga, once again, has shown he is one of the best instructors on Udemy. Really really enjoyed this course. It's difficult as a Jr Java Engineer (especially in a company that still uses a lot of old software) to get to grips with all the different terms that get thrown around like JNDI, DI, JMS, JPA, J2E and so on and it often feels like a rabbit hole with no bottom. This high level intro to a number of concepts has really helped me group these terms and understand how they connect to each other and i've made sure to make notes to refer back to in future. Thanks In 28 Minutes/Ranga!

The idea and overall structure of the course is good, but the concepts are barely described. There are examples on the most basic things, but where things get more complicated (EJB for example, or what is DAO vs Repository), there is no real information. I watched the full course but I don't feel I've gained any knowledge.

I have been a java developer for five years and although I have come across all if not all of these concepts, I did pick up some new things here and there. The material was also presented in a organized manner which helped to place concepts relative to their usage. The instructor's enthusiasm is palpable.

Great course. It definitely manages to reach its goal of demistifying the vast landscape of the Java EE framework. I got some unexpected insights out of it. It would have been good to make us write a little bit of code, but it's still very good even if it only focuses on theory and concepts.

It touched most of the aspects but complete walk through over different patterns used in MVC architecture is missing, like starting with Web then Controller then to Model & all the way back to view. request -> Intercepting Filter -> Front Controller -> Application Controller -> Business Service -> Using Business Delegate -> Service Locator, Session Facade -> DAO using TO -> View Helper -> Composite View -> respone.

This was extremely helpful. I recently encountered Oracle and JEE for the first time about a year ago, and it has been extremely difficult to figure out what is modern and what is old among the piles of documentation. I really appreciate having the context of time and order applied to the different concepts. It's exactly the kind of overview that I haven't been able to find anywhere else.

Java EE is so damn big and really difficult to understand how everything fits together The overview does a great job in giving you familiarity with common terms, concepts and how they are applied in the big picture of EE The course really does demystify so many of the terms and concepts that I have head for some time now

This course gives an overview of the basic concepts in EE programming. It covers all the main concepts in brief and allows the student to have a clear image of the landscape of the today's EE applications. This is very useful for someone who wants to delve in depth into specific aspects of the infrastructure. If the SOA and Microservices fields are covered as architectural designs it would be much beneficial for the student.

I already know a lot of things taught in this course, however my knowledge is not enough to give a synopsis of the subject. This course connects the dots, and give a very good synopsis on the subjects, this helps to understand much better the subject that a developer would be able to work with it but not be able to have a bird-view on it. Great work. Thank you very much

The instructor has really good hands on experience on the topic and it would be better if he can explain it in more practical way rather than theoretical. Up till now, my thoughts are like this and let's see the rest of the videos and make an understanding.

Very good for a beginner to understand where different parts and acronyms fits in the Java EE world. They stated that they will not go into details, which is good; sometimes feels like a little more examples may let us understand better the concepts.

The course was very concise and yet comprehensive. I had a hard time finding the right course to give an insight into Java EE and I am glad I chanced upon this course. The course gives a good overview about Java EE and it clears concepts about Java EE which a new developer needs to know.
On completion of this course, you can go to the next level of hands-on development.
A little more examples would be helpful.
