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

ORM Framework and the patterns used


Spring provides support for several ORM Frameworks, such as Hibernate, the Java Persistence API (JPA), iBATIS, and Java Data Objects (JDO). By using any ORM solution in your application, you can easily persist and access data in the form of POJO objects from relational databases. The Spring ORM module is an extension of the previously discussed Spring JDBC DAO module. Spring provides ORM templates, such as JDBC-based templates, to work in the integration tier or data access layer. The following are the ORM Frameworks and integration supported by the Spring Framework:

  • Hibernate
  • Java Persistence API
  • Java Data Objects
  • iBATIS
  • Data access object implementations
  • Transaction strategies

You can use Spring's dependency injection feature to configure ORM solutions in your application. Spring also adds important enhancements to the ORM layer in your data access applications. The following are the benefits of using the Spring Framework to create your ORM DAOs:

  • Easier development...
