Q: – What is Spring ?
Spring is an open source framework created to address the complexity of enterprise application development. One of the chief advantages of the Spring framework is its layered architecture, which allows you to be selective about which of its components you use while also providing a cohesive framework for J2EE application development.
Q: – What are the advantages of Spring framework?
The advantages of Spring are as follows:
- Spring has layered architecture. Use what you need and leave you don't need now.
- Spring Enables POJO Programming. There is no behind the scene magic here. POJO programming enables continuous integration and testability.
- Dependency Injection and Inversion of Control Simplifies JDBC
- Open source and no vendor lock-in.

Q: – How to integrate your Struts application with Spring?
To integrate your Struts application with Spring, we have two options:
