Grails brings together the best of breed frameworks on the JVM that allows for a quick time to market rollout of a project. As important as time to market and quality is there is still one thing that requires and demands some time and attention: Security! There is a growing threat with 75% of todays hacking attempts attacking the web tier.



This session will look at OWASP's top ten list and provide code examples of what to look for during code reviews and how to fix sql injection and cross site scripting (XSS). We'll look at several of the grails security plugins and how to best leverage them to protect web application resources.

Ken Sipe By Ken Sipe

Regardless of the language used, if you are deploying to the JVM it is important to know some of the JVM internals. This session will provide significant details of how heap is divided along with the function of each component. We'll explore how dynamic languages put added gc pressures on the JVM and what to do about it.



We'll end with details on how to debugging production jvm issues with VisualVM and BTrace.

  • With over 3 million users/developers, Spring Framework is the leading “out of the box” Java framework. Spring addresses and offers simple solutions for most aspects of your Java/Java EE application development, and guides you to use industry best practices to design and implement your applications.

    The release of Spring Framework 3 has ushered in many improvements and new features. Spring Recipes: A Problem-Solution Approach, Second Edition continues upon the bestselling success of the previous edition but focuses on the latest Spring 3 features for building enterprise Java applications. This book provides elementary to advanced code recipes to account for the following, found in the new Spring 3:

    • Spring fundamentals: Spring IoC container, Spring AOP/ AspectJ, and more
    • Spring enterprise: Spring Java EE integration, Spring Integration, Spring Batch, jBPM with Spring, Spring Remoting, messaging, transactions, scaling using Terracotta and GridGrain, and more.
    • Spring web: Spring MVC, Spring Web Flow 2, Spring Roo, other dynamic scripting, integration with popular Grails Framework (and Groovy), REST/web services, and more.

    This book guides you step by step through topics using complete and real-world code examples. Instead of abstract descriptions on complex concepts, you will find live examples in this book. When you start a new project, you can consider copying the code and configuration files from this book, and then modifying them for your needs. This can save you a great deal of work over creating a project from scratch!

    What you’ll learn

    • How to use the IoC container and the Spring application context to best effect.
    • Spring’s AOP support, both classic and new Spring AOP, integrating Spring with AspectJ, and load-time weaving.
    • Simplifying data access with Spring (JDBC, Hibernate, and JPA) and managing transactions both programmatically and declaratively.
    • Spring’s support for remoting technologies (RMI, Hessian, Burlap, and HTTP Invoker), EJB, JMS, JMX, email, batch, scheduling, and scripting languages.
    • Integrating legacy systems with Spring, building highly concurrent, grid-ready applications using Gridgain and Terracotta Web Apps, and even creating cloud systems.
    • Building modular services using OSGi with Spring DM and Spring Dynamic Modules and SpringSource dm Server.
    • Delivering web applications with Spring Web Flow, Spring MVC, Spring Portals, Struts, JSF, DWR, the Grails framework, and more.
    • Developing web services using Spring WS and REST; contract-last with XFire, and contract–first through Spring Web Services.
    • Spring’s unit and integration testing support (on JUnit 3.8, JUnit 4, and TestNG).
    • How to secure applications using Spring Security.

    Who this book is for

    This book is for Java developers who would like to rapidly gain hands-on experience with Java/Java EE development using the Spring framework. If you are already a developer using Spring in your projects, you can also use this book as a reference—you’ll find the code examples very useful.
