But when should CDI be used, and when should introduce EJBs? How can you integrate CDI and EJB into your application? In this session we will walk through a Java EE 6 application build around CDI, and show how we can unobtrusively add EJB services as we need them.
Presenter: Pete Muir is the project lead for Seam and Weld (the reference implementation of JSR-299: Contexts and Dependency Injection for Java EE), and is the co-founder of Arquillian, a test harness for Java application servers.
