Springboot - A milestone framework in Java Development
1 like187 views
Spring Boot is an open-source, Java-based framework that simplifies the development of stand-alone, production-ready applications by requiring minimal configuration and eliminating XML setup. It leverages dependency injection, offers powerful database transaction management, and easily integrates with other Java frameworks, ultimately reducing development time and costs. Key advantages include automated component scanning, easy testing with embedded servers, and a wide range of auto-configuration options.
Springboot - A milestone framework in Java Development
- 2. WHAT IS SPRING BOOT ? • Spring Boot is an open-source, Java-based framework developed by Pivotal that simplifies the development of stand-alone, production-ready Spring applications. • While using this spring boot we can develop applicatIon with minimal effort and configuration
- 3. • Spring Boot is the combination of Spring Framework and Embedded Servers. • In Spring Boot, there is no requirement for XML configuration (deployment descriptor). This minimizes the need for developers to write extensive configuration code and makes the development process more straightforward. • We can use Spring STS IDE or Spring Initializr to develop Spring Boot Java applications
- 4. Why should we use Spring Boot ? • The dependency injection approach is used in Spring Boot. • It contains powerful database transaction management capabilities. • It simplifies integration with other Java frameworks like JPA/Hibernate ORM, Struts, etc. • It reduces the cost and development time of the application
- 5. Advantages of Spring Boot • It creates stand-alone Spring applications that can be started using Java -jar. • Spring Boot automatically scans and discovers Spring components (such as controllers, services, and repositories) in specific packages without the need for explicit configuration • It tests web applications easily with the help of different Embedded HTTP servers such as Tomcat, Jetty, etc. We don't need to deploy WAR files. • It provides opinionated 'starter' POMs to simplify our Maven configuration
- 6. • There is no requirement for XML configuration. • It offers a CLI tool for developing and testing the Spring Boot application. • It also minimizes writing code , XML configuration, and annotations. • It increases productivity and reduces development time. • Spring Boot provides a wide range of auto-configuration classes that automatically configure various parts of the application based on the libraries and frameworks on the classpath. For example, if you include a database driver JAR in your project, Spring Boot can automatically configure a database connection
- 7. Limitation of Spring Boot Spring Boot can use dependencies that are not going to be used in the application. These dependencies increase the size of the Application.
- 8. Prerequisite of Spring Boot To create a Spring Boot application, following are the prerequisites • Java 7 • Maven 2.7 • Spring Framework 5.0.0.BUILD- SNAPSHOT.
