Developing software applications is hard enough even with good tools and technologies. Implementing
applications using platforms which promise everything but turn out to be heavy-weight, hard to control and not
very efficient during the development cycle makes it even harder. Spring provides a light-weight solution for
building enterprise-ready applications, while still supporting the possibility of using declarative transaction
management, remote access to your logic using RMI or web services, and various options for persisting your
data to a database.
