Enterprise Messaging With Spring and ActiveMQ:
9:00 AM MDT
Spring greatly simplifies JMS messaging by handling common scenarios for you by providing facilities for both synchronous and asynchronous messaging. This dramatically lowers the barrier to building
message-driven applications. Apache ActiveMQ is an open source JMS message broker that provides client access from many different languages and offers many advanced features necessary for enterprise
level messaging.
This session examines the use of Spring JMS and ActiveMQ to easily build message-driven applications.
ActiveMQ In Action: Common Problems and Solutions
10:45 AM MDT
Why does ActiveMQ just stop sending messages and hang? What's the best way to build a JMS consumer and producer? What configuration should I use for connection pooling? How can I query ActiveMQ for the message I need? Should I cluster ActiveMQ or group clients across brokers? If you use ActiveMQ, chances are you have run into some questions that are easily answered with a little knowledge.
This session examines the top five questions from developers using ActiveMQ.
Messaging and Concurrency in Your Applications Using Spring
1:30 PM MDT
Most Spring-based applications utilize a design based on layering. When using the standard layered application approach, the service layer is commonly used to encapsulate reusable, business-specific
logic. Furthermore, communication between these services has taken place via synchronous method invocations. Spring also provides support for a message-driven communication and concurrent task
messaging and concurrency support in Spring for your applications.

Styles of Application Integration Using Spring
3:15 PM MDT
Different integration scenarios require different types of application integration styles. Knowledge of these integration types will help you understand how to add integration to your applications using Spring.
This session discusses three styles of application integration, how they can affect your application design and how to implement each one using Spring.
