Data-intensive JEE applications

Hello,

I have to write a data-intensive app and I have chosen Java instead of PHP because its robustness. My app has many data over many tables with dozens of fields.

It was requested also sofisticated forms and generation of graphics.

So where do I start? I got good knowledges of JSE, something of JSP and Servlets but I believe as there are so many abbreviation that I think it is not enough :(

Which IDE should I pick? Which concepts? (Struts, JSF, Spring, other?) What are best web resources to get some knowledge?

Should I use Tomcat or JBoss?

What about PostGre-SQL?

CSS? JavaScript? Ajax? Are all them already stable?

Thanks in advance.

My 2 cents worth.

Which IDE should I pick? Which concepts? (Struts, JSF, Spring, other?) What are best web resources to get some knowledge?Eclipse with Exadel plugin

I like JSF better than struts. You will have a learning curve with either Struts or

JSF.

Should I use Tomcat or JBoss?I use Tomcat most of the Time.

What about PostGre-SQL?I like MySQL but PostGres is a great Database

also

CSS? JavaScript? Ajax? Are all them already stable? Yes Yes and Yes.

I would like to note that if this is your first j2ee development effort you will have a steep leaning curve. I would add about 4 weeks to the length of your project just for using JSF for the first time.

Is Eclipse the most comprehensive and complete tool for JEE Development?
