As Java EE technologies becomes more ubiquitous, the simplicity of implementation can become overshadowed by the complexities of configuration, packaging, testing and deployment. A single Java EE API is great for building a pluggable architecture, but nothing stops you from shooting yourself in the foot in terms of weak project division, or management of a large number of modules - nevermind the task of finding and using the correct versions of everything. There is also the problem of managing configurations for separate environments (dev, test, prod) and safely migrating up the promotion chain. We will cover the conversion of a Java EE project from a standard Ant/script-based build to one managed by Maven.
