The Sun Java System Application Server 7 (formerly Sun(Open Net Environment (Sun ONE)Application Server 7) Administration course provides students with the skills necessary to install the Sun Java System Application Server 7 in a production environment.

Students deploy and administer Java 2 Platform Enterprise Edition (J2EE technology applications. This course also includes information on the following topics: server features, architecture, logging, server topologies, Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) server configuration, containers, services, database connectivity, application security, monitoring and Quality of Service (QoS), migration, and troubleshooting.

Please Note: Sun has recently re-branded Sun ONE Application Server 7 to be Sun Java System Application Server 7. You may see reference to either name within the course description and course materials.
