7. Java EE 7 Focus: Platform as a Service
• Provide way for customers and users to leverage public,
private, and hybrid clouds
• PaaS support entails evolutionary change
• Next logical step for Java EE
– J2EE à Java EE 6 : The Java EE Platform provides services
– Java EE 7 : The Java EE Platform IS a service

8. Java EE 7 PaaS Roadmap
• Define new platform roles to accommodate PaaS model
• Add metadata
– For service provisioning and configuration
– For QoS, elasticity
– For sharing of applications and resources
– For (re)configurability and customization
• Add useful APIs for cloud environment
– JAX-RS client API, Caching API, State Management, JSON,…
• Extend existing APIs with support for multi-tenancy

34. Multi-tenancy in Java EE 7
• Support for separate isolated instances of the same app for
different tenants
– One application instance per tenant
– Tenants correspond to units of isolation
– Multitenant apps are declared as such
– Each instance customized and deployed for a single tenant
– Limited form of SaaS
• Mapping to tenant done by the container
• Tenant id available to application
– E.g., under java:comp/tenantId or by injection

35. Java EE 7 Focus Area: Application Level Multi
Tenancy
• Goal: Simple configuration
• Flexible tenant discriminator support
• Other areas impacted - JNDI, JMS, EJB …
