Spring Framework

The Spring Framework is a powerful and versatile framework for building Java applications. Here are some key points about it:

• Core Features: It provides comprehensive infrastructure support for developing Java applications, allowing us to focus on our application’s business logic rather than the underlying infrastructure.
• Inversion of Control (IoC): Spring uses IoC to manage the lifecycle and dependencies of objects, which helps in creating loosely coupled applications.
• Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP): This feature allows us to separate cross-cutting concerns (like logging, security, and transaction management) from our business logic.
• Spring MVC: It includes a robust model-view-controller (MVC) framework for building web applications.
• Data Access: Spring simplifies data access using JDBC, ORM frameworks like Hibernate, and transaction management.
• Modularity: We can use the entire framework or just the parts that we need, making it highly modular and flexible.
