This document provides an overview of Enterprise JavaBeans (EJBs). It discusses that EJBs are reusable components that represent data and behavior, and can be combined visually using development tools. EJBs provide advantages like avoiding the need to write multi-threaded, database access, network communication, transaction management, and other complex code. EJBs from different systems can interact easily through well-defined interfaces. The document also outlines EJB containers, web browsers, applets and other Java EE components, and common scripts used to manage the Java EE server.
