This is a brilliantly practical work that lets the reader experience a real-world scalable agile enterprise Java-based application being built from the ground up using the latest Spring 2.x kit available. The open source agile lightweight Spring (meta) Framework 2.x is by far the leading innovative force and "lightning rod" that's driving today's Java industry. Spring has time and time again proven itself in real-world highly scalable enterprise settings such as banks and other financial institutions. These institutions, along with grid and other traditional Java vendors that supports them, are looking at Spring first, and have all but forgotten Java EE/J2EE. This book will be one of the first two books on Spring 2, and in this case it is the only authoritative Spring 2 authored book, as it has been written by team members of Interface21, the group that lead the Spring Foundation and its growing community.

The open source agile lightweight Spring (meta) Framework 2.x is by far the leading innovative force and "lightning rod" that's driving today's Java industry. Spring has time and time again proven itself in real-world highly scalable enterprise settings such as banks and other financial institutions. These institutions, along with grid and other traditional Java vendors that supports them, are looking at Spring first, and have all but forgotten Java EE/J2EE. Building Spring 2 Enterprise Applications by Interface21/Spring Foundation team members by lets the reader experience a real-world scalable agile enterprise Java-based application being built from the ground up using the latest as available in the latest Spring 2.x.

Zusammenfassung

Spring has made a remarkable rise in popularity since its conception in 2002. Many users have found the lightweight, open-source Spring Framework 2.x ideal for building their applications in Java EE environments. Written by Interface21, Building Spring 2 Enterprise Applications will take developers through the following:

• Covers the first steps of using Spring while discussing the relevant technologies that Spring can be integrated with, what to be aware of, and how working with Spring makes them easier to use
• Focuses on the most useful features of Spring, including persistence and transaction management as well as the complete Spring web tools portfolio
• Introduces three-tier application design and how to test these designs
