Some basic questions ....

Hi all,
What is an entity bean and a session bean?
What is the difference between the both of them?
Are there any advantages of using one over the other?

Hi Kirtikumar,
Do you want to learn EJB via this forum, or would you prefer to read books, articles and other relevant resources?
Personally, I prefer the second option. So, assuming that you do too, then have you seen these?

And most EJB container vendors also have _lots_ of information on their Web sites. I use Oracle's OC4J:

Hope this helps.
Good Luck,
