Welcome to the world of Spring- a very powerful framework that opens a lot of possibilities.
More often than not the potentials of Spring leave people confused. How should an application be designed? What about best practices? In this talk some of the issues for the architecture of Spring applications are explained in more detail and typical approaches are shown.
This includes typical solution in areas like
the design of a persistence layer
the choice of persistence technology
how to actually make layering work
the design of the service layer
how to do distributed applications with Spring.

Spring Web Services 1.0— Spring Web Services 1.0 provides a flexible, powerful Web services framework by facilitating best practices such as contract-first Web service development, the WS-I basic profile, and loose coupling between contract and implementation, allowing for the creation of flexible Web services using one of the many ways to manipulate XML payloads. By providing developers with a simpler approach to contract-first development, Spring-WS resolves many of the interoperability issues associated with typical Web services approaches.
Spring and Eclipse RCP— Eclipse as a Rich Client Platform is increasingly mainstream. Organizations from NASA to IBM to major banks and airlines have adopted RCP as a core platform for building their applications. In this talk we look at various current RCP usecases and examples and discuss the synergies with Spring.
Spring IDE - Tooling for the Spring Framework— Spring IDE provides support features within the Eclipse platform for Spring Framework development. It gives you useful tools to validate and visualize your bean definitions as well as support while editing Spring Bean defintions with content assist and much more.
Spring Batch— Spring Batch is the only comprehensive lightweight batch framework designed to enable batch development for enterprise systems of varying complexity. Simple as well as complex, high-volume batch jobs can leverage this framework in a highly scalable manner.
Spring.NET - An update— This session will give an update on recent developments in Spring.NET covering messaging, interop, WinForms, .NET 3.0, and AJAX integration. An overview of features not found in Spring Java, such as the Spring Expression language and its integration into the container, will also be presented.
