Java API for RESTful Services (JAX-RS)

A programming model based on a specification from Sun Microsystems. JAX-RS defines a set of APIs and annotations designed to simplify the creation of Web applications using REST architectural principles.

Java API for XML Processing (JAXP)

An API for processing XML documents. JAXP supports the SAX, DOM, and XSLT standards.

Java API for XML Registries (JAXR)

An API for accessing an XML registry.

Java API for XML Web Services (JAX-WS)

A programming model based on a specification from Sun Microsystems. JAX-WS is a rearchitected API for Web services that is more document centric. It was designed to take the place of JAX-RPC in Web services and Web applications.

Java API for XML-Based RPC (JAX-RPC)

A programming model based on a specification from Sun Microsystems. The JAX-RPC specification defines APIs and conventions for supporting XML-based remote procedure calls in the Java platform.

Java Architecture for XML Binding (JAXB)

An API that provides a way to bind an XML Schema to a representation in Java code. JAXB is part of Sun Microsystems' Java Web Services Developer Pack.

Java Business Integration (JBI)

A specification for a standards-based, vendor-neutral architecture, based on SOA principles, for the integration of disparate applications, service providers, and service consumers. JBI-compliant components are expected to plug in and interoperate with other JBI-compliant components. This frees vendors to concentrate on supplying components that implement their particular area of expertise without worrying about implementing the other necessary portions of a complete solution. JBI also frees end-users to pick and choose among many JBI-compliant components to assemble a SOA network sized to their needs, without locking in to one vendor's approach. The JBI specification was developed by the Java Community Process. Compare with SCA.

Java Database Connectivity (JDBC)

An API specified in Java technology that provides Java applications with access to databases and other data sources.

Java Management eXtensions (JMX)

A Java technology that supplies tools for managing and monitoring applications, system objects, devices, and service-oriented networks.

Java Message Service (JMS)

A Java API implementing a Sun Microsystems messaging standard that allows application components based on J2EE to create, send, receive, and read messages. It enables distributed communication that is loosely coupled, reliable, and asynchronous.

Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI)

A set of APIs specified in Java technology that assists Java applications with interfacing to multiple naming and directory services.

Java Platform, Enterprise Edition 5 (JEE)

A specification and toolkit from Sun Microsystems for the development and deployment of enterprise applications. JEE is the Java 5 version of J2EE.

JavaScript Object Notation (JSON)

A text-based, human-readable format for representing simple data structures JSON is specified in RFC 4627. The official Internet media type for JSON is application/json. JSON format is often as an alternative to XML for the serialization and transmission of structured data over a network connection.
