Batch processing: As EJB or standalone?

Hi,
We are trying to develop some batch applications using java language.
I was asked to evaluate the differences between running them as standalone java programs or as an EJB inside an Application Server.
Any idea? Which is the best way?

If you are running the EJB's and the client calling them within the same application server and it is a non-idiotic EJB container, then the overhead of calling an EJB is on the level of a method call plus some hashtable lookups or the like for turning the symbolic name for the EJB into a java reference to an instance.
If your system is large enough that you have to spread the load of running the EJBs over several machines you will benefit from the facilities for controlling and administering such a setup that the appliaction server provides you with.
Building your own system will not only cost a lot of time and effort and end up offereng less functionality than the J2EE server due to your development budget being orders of magnitude smaller than SUN's, you will also have a hard time making a better performing system since you have the same facilities at your disposal for creating your system as SUN had when creating J2EE.
The only exception is if your task is very unlike what J2EE was constructed for handling well so you will be creating a radically different architecture than J2EE. From what little you have told about your task, it seems to fit nicely within the range os tasks J2EE was ment to handle well.

  • Batch application: As EJB or standalone?

    Hi,

    Good question. I'm currently in a similar planning process (I'm still in a pretty early stage), and so far, I've come up with the following notes:
    pro non-ejb:
    - on EJB you cannot have multiple threads for a single EJB
    - File I/O is also restricted on EJB
    pro ejb:
    - location transparency; you can basically run it everywhere
    - on app server, possibility of ressource sharing (e.g. JDBC connection pooling)
    misc:
    - future ejb specs might contain timers (schedulers) so that you can schedule the jobs without programming the scheduler; not available at the moment in general, although some vendors might support this (weblogic ??)

  • Can we have a Real batch process

    The current batch process functionality in Audition records not keystrokes, but settings; so if you record a process using the ClickPop Eliminator functionality under Restoration, you get whatever settings you used with the sound sample you used during the script recording.  However, if you want to record a script that uses the very powerful Auto Find All Levels feature of the Click/Pop functionality, you're out of luck (as far as I know).
    I'm in the process of cleaning up a bunch of old recordings I have and digitizing them.  I can't use the click/pop setting of one for the others!  They're just too different, so I've been spending hours waiting while the system samples the current audio and applies the click/pop settings.  Can we get a true automation system that let's me record the fact that I want the system to run the Auto Find, then use the results to run the Click/pop eliminator.  I could then process hundreds of files while I sleep instead of having to check my computer screen every five minutes and get the next step of the process running!
    There are other products with better automation, but they don't do as good a job to reduce noise and eliminate clicks and pops on a wide variety of audio as Audition does.  But if you know some that does, please let me know!

    Map data with the standard iPhone Maps application is not stored locally on the iPhone. An internet connection is required to download maps data with the Maps application, which would not be effective with a turn by turn voice direction GPS navigation app. Maps data with a standalone GPS navigation device is stored locally on the device.

  • Random Error in Batch Processing

    Hi All,
    I have a batch process that reads records from DB, pass them to Mediator which calls a BPEL process. During a huge batch processing of 10000 records, we are getting errors in random fashion as under. This error is not specific to a particular record because on the second run with same records exception is seen for some different records. The instance is seen as faulted in the EM console.

  • Batch processing using JPD suitability

    Hello,
    In our company, we are using Weblogic Integration 8.1.6 for batch DB processing mixed with some business logic. We have a few applications built around this: an event generator is fired and a JPD (with DB controls and other controls calling EJBs and WSs) runs to process large CSV files (8MB) into the DB, with some other queries for business data in between, on a daily basis.
    However, we have been facing (and still are facing) many problems with those JPDs. It seems to me that they are not such a good choice for long running batches. There is always something: memory is to low, memory is too high (yes! there was a time when we had to lower the instance memory from 1.5GB to 1GB, to prevent it from crashing, after endless trial and error), the transaction timeout is too short (in the descriptors or domain wide), processes cannot be monitored in the WLI console for unknown reasons, transaction handling is not clear (you cannot avoid transactions inside the JPD; it is forced by default - you can only disable it through the datasource) and more problems that happened throughout the past few years, which required rather tedious trial-and-error solving.
    My question is: are JPDs really suitable/intended for long batch processing? The event generators certainly invite you into using them for that purpose. Is anybody else using them for that? Or is everyone else happy with batch EXEs?

  • Batch Processing - Application Client

    Hello,
    I have a batch processing java program(application client) which does a certain activity. The batch processing program looks up Remote Stateless EJB's for performing certain business logic. I do not have any Connection Handling in the java program(application client). EJB's perform all the DB activity. Whenever my application client(java program) invokes the EJB's I see the DB connection going up significantly(3 times more than what is defined in data-sources.xml). When the application client is done and exits the DB connections come back to normal. Not sure why that would happen. Can someone throw any light ?
    Note : Earlier we where using Oracle9i(9.0.3.0.0) and now we moved to Oracle10g(10.1.2.1.0). This behaviour is notice after the migration form Oracle9iAS to Oracle10gAS.
    Appreciate quick responses..

  • In Bridge CS6, the "Tools" tab is missing the "Photoshop" option to batch process image

    Hello!
    Does anyone know why in Bridge cs6 under the "Tools" tab, my "Photoshop" option is missing?  That is how I have always batch processed images.  In Bridge, I choose the images to process, go to the "Tools" tab, down to the "Photoshop" option then to "Image Processor" and process.  Now when I go into my "Tools" tab it only has the options: Batch Rename, 4 kinds of Metadata related options and Cache.  Can someone tell me why this has happened and how to fix it?  Thank you!!!

  • How to display custom error message in Job log for batch processing

    Hi All,

  • Batch process to add Javascript to PDF files

    Hi All,
    I have written a small piece of Javascript for my PDF files. The idea is to add a date stamp to each page of the document before printing. To do this, I have added the following code to the "Document Will Print" action:
    for (var pageNumber = 0; pageNumber < this.numPages; pageNumber++)
    var dateStamp = this.addField("Date","text",pageNumber,[700,10,500,40]);
    dateStamp.textSize=8;
    dateStamp.value = "Date Printed: " + util.printd("dd/mmm/yyyy",new Date());
    My question is this: Does anyone know of a way to batch process a whole directory (of around 600 PDF's) to insert my Javascript into the "Document Will Print" action of each file?
    Many thanks for any information you may have.
    Kind regards,
    Aaron

    > Can I just confirm a few things please? Firstly, should I be going into "Batch Sequences" -> "New Sequence" and selecting "Execute JavaScript" as my sequence type?
    Yes, you are creating new batch sequence that will use JavaScript.
    > My second question is, how can I insert my body of script into the variable "cScript"? I have quotation marks and other symbols that I imagine I will have to escape if I wish to do this?
    You ca either use different quotation marks or us the JavaScript escape character '\' to insert quotation marks
    Your will print code will only work for a full version of Acrobat and not Reader, because Reader will not allow the addition of fields. Also each time you print you will be creating duplicate copies of the field. So it might be better to add the form field only in the batch process and then just add the script to populate the date field in the WillPrint action.
    // add form field to each page of the PDF
    for (var pageNumber = 0; pageNumber < this.numPages; pageNumber++)
    var dateStamp = this.addField("Date","text",pageNumber,[700,10,500,40]);
    dateStamp.textSize=8;
    this.setAction("WillPrint", "dateStamp.value = \"Date Printed: \" + util.printd(\"dd/mmm/yyyy\",\new Date());");

  • Opening and closing files very slowly -MAC - Batch processing broke illustrator...

    I have been batch processing between 15 and 30 thousand svg files over the past few days(simply centreing the orbjects on the art board mergring overlapping objects and saving as AI's) - the individual files are very small 20kb max. this was working fine for a while but suddenly illustrator now takes nearly 30 seconds to open any one individual file - svg or otherwise - and also when I look at illustrator in activity monitor as files are opened illustrator uses 100% of the CPU.
    I have no Idea if this is related to all of the batch processing Ive been doing lately but Its the last thing Ive done so...
    Also I have run disk utility on my machine uninstalled and reinstalled illustrator with no success..
    Anyone have any thoughts?
    Thanks!!

    Have you tried at least restarting AI or rebooting the computer?

  • Please Help, Issues when batch processing Multi Frame images in Fireworks

    I hope someone will know how to do this and tell me where I am going wrong.
    Objective 1
    I have a large number of images that all have the exact same number of frames (4) and are all exactly the same size that I want to get resized, cropped and water marked (when I say 'watermarked I mean have my websites logo pasted in a specificlocation on each frame, I have my websites logo as a seperate .png file which I copy from).
    Current Process
    I create a command which will crop the image then paste my companys url/log onto the first frame, move it to the correct location on the frame then copy it again and then paste it onto each of the other frames, the command then resizes the image tot he exact proportions I want.
    I start a batch process and use my command, making sure that I also export from the .png to animated gif (and I edit the settings to make it 256 animated gif).
    Error 1
    The process described above resizes and crops my images however it does NOT put the watermark in the correct place, it seems to put it int he right place on the first frame and then in a different place on all the followingn frames thus giving the effect of the watermark jumping around. Which is obviously NOT what I want.
    Question 1
    Please let me know what process I should be following to correct the Error 1 above.
    Objective & Question 2
    I want to do exactly the same thing as shown above but this time the files have a varying number of frames (from 2 to 45 frames (or instances as CS4 seems to call them)). Is there a way to paste my logo to the to the exact same location on ALL frames?
    Other information
    I have tried WHXY Paste extension and I can not see how to use that to solve the issue. I have also tried 'Paste in Place' however I can not see how to use the Paste In Place extension as it is not appering in my list of commands.
    Many thanks in advance for your help.
    Andy

    Andy, you could start a batch process which will do most of the things you are asking for. THe batch process can be done using Fireworks. The right way to start is going to Archivo / Procesar por Lotes and then follow all the different option this tool has to offer.  Yes, I know I gave you the names in Spanish but that is the way I use Adobe Fireworks.
    I hope this was usefull for you!

  • How to extract data from offline PDF files as batch processing

    Hello.
    I want to use Adobe Interactive forms as batch processing.
    For instances,
    1. Users download offline PDF files.
    2. Users inputs data on their local PCs.
    3. Users upload these PDF files in one folder.
    4. Program can read data form PDF files on that folder. and put data to ERP at night.
    I' d like to know how to implement a program with Java or ABAP.
    Regards.
    Koji.

    Hi,
    It's possible to do it but first be sure that the SAP system can read the directory while your program is executed in background .
    Then you have to read the content of the directory and process each file you found.
    Look at this standard ABAP object cl_gui_frontend_services , you will find method for browsing a directory and retrieve list of file .
    Afterwards you have to process each file , for this have a look at this wiki code sample i wrote for processing inbound mail with adobe interactive form, it should help you [Sample Code for processing Inbound Mail with Adobe Interactive Forms|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/wiki?path=/display/snippets/sampleCodeforprocessingInboundMailwithAdobeInteractive+Forms]
    Hope this help you .

  • Need help with batch processing picture packages

    Hi, I am having trouble batch processing picture packages is CS2.  (Windows).
    I have hundreds of images that need to be processed into picture packages and would love to find a speedier way to do this.
    I know how to create an action.  I know how to batch process from this action.  I also know how to create picture packages, but I cannot get the final result I am after - please read on....
    I have seperated all the images into their seperate folders for each style of picture package required.
    I can create an action for the picture package required and then do a batch process on the particular folder, but this leaves all the picture packages open on the desktop - as when you chose the close and save in the batch process - this only closes and saves the original image - the picture package has been created as a new document and is on the desktop still open - named Picture Package 1, Picture Package 2 - etc etc.
    I hope I am making some kind of sense here... (??!!)
    What I would like to happen is that the picture package will be saved over the original file (or to a new folder) with the original file name of the original image or maybe even with an adjustment to file name (e.g - orignal file name sc1234.jpeg - new file name sc1234packA.jpeg)
    So is this possible to do??  I'm thinking there must be a way.... i'm sure there are many group photographers out there who come across this everyday??
    Otherwise I have to save each picture package manually to original file name (via searching though files to match the original image to the picture package....) Very time consuming.
    Thanks for your help (in anticipation)...

    hmm - thanks for that - sounds like I will have to try and find some info and assistance regarding the scripting - it may be something I need to look into at a later time in the future....
    At the moment though I will have to plod along with this method I guess!
    Thanks for your assistance...

  • Can I use Organizer to change the .jpg size of all photos in a folder in one batch process?

    We're using wa-a-ay too much disk space for a growing photo collection.   My daughter is a camera freak with four kids -- need I say more? 
    In my current test folder the sizes of the original photos range from 2.3 MB to 4.2 MB.  I picked one photo at random and printed the original and then three more, saved by PSE9 as .jpg files at maximum, middle, and minimum quality settings on plain letter-size paper, and again on 4x6 photo paper.  It takes a magnifying glass and a calibrated eyeball to detect a difference on the plain paper, and it's even more difficult on the photo paper.  I think I should relieve the pressure on the hard drive's capacity by reducing everything to a more reasonable size; after all, the minimum-quality print takes up less than one percent of the disk space as does the maximum-quality print.
    I have a hunch that I can accomplish this in a batch process with Organizer, but that's all I have is the hunch -- not the know-how.   I would like someone to step me through the process.
    I also expect a lecture on why I shouldn't do this.  Go for it; I'll listen.
    Thanks,  Bud

    You are the one to judge... Will you regret it if you want to use some pictures with the original size and resolution at a later time?
    Yes, you can use either the organizer or the 'process multiple files' command of the editor. But first you should think about two questions:
    - Are you ready to backup the full resolution and size files before the 'shrinking'? External USB drives with big capacities are available and affordable.
    - From what you are saying, the optimal size would be for files resized for 4" x 6" format at 300 ppi in jpeg quality 8 to 10.
    Resizing from the Editor: Use the 'process multiple files' command and click the 'Same as source' button. I would not do it without a sound backup first... This can be done folder by folder.
    Resizing from the Organizer : Use the 'Export' command. That command leaves the original and puts the resulting files in a new folder. The resulting files are NOT included in the catalog.This means that keeping your organization (categories, albums, tags...) will be tricky; same if you are using a folder organization system.
    Another solution with a third party software such as Faststone photo resizer:
    - Absolutely do a full backup before
    - run the resizing options in the external software so that the files are resized without being moved. That replaces the originals.
    - If you are using the organizer, your organization will be kept, but the file sizes in the catalog and thumbnail databases will be wrong. You can regenerate the thumbnail cache by deleting the thumbs.5.cache file in your catalog folder; it will be automatically rebuilt.
    That has worked for me in the past... no guarantee for you!
