White Paper: Migrating Enterprise Applications to Spring

Spring has grown from a simple framework into an alternative platform to the full-stack Enterprise Java platform (Java EE). Targeting Spring allows applications to be written with less code while also reducing complexity, greatly increasing portability across multiple environments, ensuring better code re-usability, and easing the process of testing application code. This white paper provides practical guidance on architectural decisions related to migrating enterprise applications to the Spring platform, common migration strategies and specific migration cases.
