Spring 5 Design Patterns

By: Dinesh Rajput

Overview of this book

Design patterns help speed up the development process by offering well tested and proven solutions to common problems. These patterns coupled with the Spring framework offer tremendous improvements in the development process. The book begins with an overview of Spring Framework 5.0 and design patterns. You will understand the Dependency Injection pattern, which is the main principle behind the decoupling process that Spring performs, thus making it easier to manage your code. You will learn how GoF patterns can be used in Application Design. You will then learn to use Proxy patterns in Aspect Oriented Programming and remoting. Moving on, you will understand the JDBC template patterns and their use in abstracting database access. Then, you will be introduced to MVC patterns to build Reactive web applications. Finally, you will move on to more advanced topics such as Reactive streams and Concurrency. At the end of this book, you will be well equipped to develop efficient enterprise applications using Spring 5 with common design patterns

Best practices for web application design

The following are some of the best practices that must be considered while designing and developing a web application:

  • Spring MVC is the best choice to design and develop a web application because of the Spring DI pattern and the very flexible MVC pattern with Spring. Spring's DispatcherServlet, too, is very flexible and customizable.
  • In any web application using the MVC pattern, the front controller should be generic and as lightweight as possible.
  • It is important to maintain a clear separation of concerns across the layers of the web application. Separating layers improves the clean design of the application.
  • If an application layer has too many dependencies with the other layers, as a best approach, introduce another layer to reduce the dependency of that layer.
  • Never inject a DAO object to the controllers in the web application; always inject a services object to the controller. The DAO objects must be injected with the service layers so that the...
