| The development world is all abuzz with talk of Enterprise JavaBeans—and with good reason. For the uninitiated, an Enterprise JavaBean is a software component, or mini-program, that confers some unique functionality to the application, or container, it runs in—such as a shopping cart for an online retailer, or an account management service for a bank. The height of object-oriented programming, EJB technology tremendously streamlines the development process and makes it easier than ever to retrofit applications with powerful new features as needed.
