Pros and Cons of J2EE.

So this is what the Java part of VBForums looks lik :)

I have been ask to write a document discussing the benfecial and negative aspects of a J2EE architecture and its technical implications.

Now I don't know anything about J2EE and I'm am having problems trying to determine what are the technical implications.

Can anyone provide me with some help? pros cons implications.

This might help give you some ideas. http://java.sun.com/j2ee/faq.html#j2ee
Negative aspects of a J2EE architecture and its technical implications? Whoever gave you this assignment should be more clear as to what they want.

That's quite some task. I still have problems understanding the basic principle of J2EE. It's a weird beast.

Thanks for the link Dilenger4, benefits are easy to find what with all the marketing fluff. I found a chapter from a Wrox book which seemed pretty good, so I paid homage to it ;).
The question was set by an employer as part of an interview test.
