Title
Body
As I am learning JSF2, I realized I am not sure what the backing components should be. From design point of view, what is the difference between EJBs and @ManagedBeans ? In the end I am going to use JPA, so EJB is a natural choice for business layer. Is it a good practice to use EJB directly from JSF (as explained here )? At the moment I'm leaning towards using @ManagedBeans for components which don't need access to business layer (e.g. view helpers) or deal with request/session data. For other purposes, e.g. listing something in a grid, I would directly access EJB. Is this a good design? Shall I use @ManagedBeans for all backing beans for the sake of clean layer separation, even if in some cases they only delegate to EJB?
