Benefits of Using Spring Framework

Benefits of Using Spring Framework

Spring targets to make Java EE development easier. Here are the advantages or benefits of using it:
  • Lightweight: Lightweight development with Java POJOs.
  • Inversion of Control (IoC): Spring container takes care of wiring dependencies of various objects, instead of creating or looking for dependent objects
  • Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP): Spring supports AOP to separate business logic from system services
  • IOC container: It is responsible for instantiating, configuring, and assembling the Spring beans by reading configuration metadata.
  • Spring MVC framework: that is used to create web applications or RESTful web services, capable of returning XML/JSON responses. The Spring Web MVC framework provides a powerful and flexible Web framework as an alternative to Struts and other frameworks.
  • Transaction management: reduces the amount of boiler-plate code in JDBC operations, file uploading, etc., either by using Java annotations or by Spring Bean XML configuration file
  • Exception Handling: Spring provides a convenient API for translating technology-specific exceptions into unchecked exceptions.
  • It provides abstraction on ORM software to develop the ORM persistence logic.
  • The Spring Test module provides support for an easy-to-test code.
  • The Spring Framework supports the JDBC framework that improves productivity and reduces the error.
