Now you understand the overall request flow and the responsibility of each component in a typical Spring MVC application, but that is not enough for you to build an online web store application. We also need to know the best practices to develop an enterprise-level web application. One of the best practices in a typical web application is to organize source codes into layers, which will improve reusability and loose coupling. A typical web application would normally have four layers, namely presentation, domain, services, and persistence. So far, what we have seen like the Dispatcher servlet, controllers, view resolvers, and similar, are considered to be part of the Presentation layer's components. Now you need to understand the remaining layers and components one by one.

Overview of this book
Spring MVC helps you build flexible and loosely coupled web applications. The Spring MVC Framework is architected and designed in such a way that every piece of logic and functionality is highly configurable. Also, Spring can integrate effortlessly with other popular web frameworks such as Struts, WebWork, Java Server Faces, and Tapestry.
The book progressively teaches you to configure the Spring development environment, architecture, controllers, libraries, and more before moving on to developing a full web application. It begins with an introduction to the Spring development environment and architecture so you're familiar with the know-hows. From here, we move on to controllers, views, validations, Spring Tag libraries, and more. Finally, we integrate it all together to develop a web application. You'll also get to grips with testing applications for reliability.
