This will be changed very soon with Ejb3 and the Ejb3 container can be
embedded. With a careful planning, we can develop with POJO, and then
add annotations for using Ejb3 persistence framework. To make this
distinction, some vendors start to use JEE (instead of J2EE) to stand
for your selected embedded libraries. Now we can mix and match different
services from different vendors. I see this is the real strength of Java
thanks to standards and open sources.
