Dmitry Buzdin's 2-day Advanced Google Web Toolkit: Large-Scale GWT Development will provide a set of advanced patterns and practices for attendees with existing GWT hands-on experience on how to design and implement production-ready, large-scale applications. The important topics, which are discussed during the course are security, performance, integration with existing frameworks and technologies (Spring, JPA2). The course is based on real-world experience and state-of-the-art approaches used in latest GWT framework versions.

• Build complex applications using MVP approach
• Implement server communication layer
• Build application navigation concept
• Design GWT applications for scalability and performance
• Improve performance of the GWT applications
• Integrate with common enterprise technologies
• Ensure security in GWT applications
