Java EE

Definitions

1. The former enterprise Java platform that standardized APIs for web apps, transactions, persistence, messaging, and dependency injection on application servers such as WildFly or GlassFish. Java EE was later transferred to the Eclipse Foundation and renamed Jakarta EE.

   In plain English: It is the older enterprise version of Java for building large server-side business applications.

   Example: "That billing system still runs on Java EE with EJBs and a full application server in front of Oracle."
