Similarties of ASP.NET and Java web application

Question

I would like to know what are the equivilents of these features of C# asp.net compared to a similar java built web application.

Would a java based web application still be created in this fashion:

web.site
    html files, javascripts, css
web.business
    business logic, rules, etc.
web.entities
    person, account, cart....
web.dataAccess
    basic CRUD access

I'm pretty sure that in the business and entity sections that C# and Java would be very similar to each other with complied libraries of the correct file types. In the dataAccess section, there is alot of similarities such as hibernate/nHibernate, ORMS and such, so I'm not too worried about that. But the site section is a little fuzzy. ASP.NET would have the .aspx file with a .aspx.cs codebehind, but I have no idea what a java site would have. Are these js files, jar files, servlets, applets...haven't a clue.

Can anyone go into any detail about this? Thanks.

Answer 1

Basically its's equivalent of J2EE in .Net framework which includes (Asp.Net)

web.site (java) html files, javascripts, css

web.site (.Net) html files, javascripts, jQuery, css

---

web.business(java) business logic, rules, etc.

web.business(.Net) Same as java, with some differences like inheritance rules like multiple class inheritance in one go is not allowed in C#, as in java

---

web.entities(java) person, account, cart....

web.entities(.Net) person, account, cart....(Same as java)

---

web.dataAccess(jave) basic CRUD access

web.dataAccess(.Net) several options like LINQ, ODBC, ADO.NET
