By Colin Sampaleanu
Organizations and individuals considering the use of Spring may face a number of concerns which can impact their ability to execute: there may be an existing legacy codebase which needs to be migrated, a lack of familiarity with the new technology, or a need to justify the use of Spring instead of continued use of older technologies or use of other alternatives.
This session focuses on strategies and justifications when moving from legacy technologies such as full stack Java EE 1.4 or earlier (with or without EJB 2.x) to the Spring platform. This session will also be of use for those considering the use of Spring with or without full stack Java EE 5.
Topics covered in this session include:
- How Spring integrates with, and builds on Java EE, while offering a number of compelling benefits
- A look at Spring in comparison to EJB 2.5
- The impact of migrating a legacy, full-stack Java EE 1.4 or 1.3 application ((with or without EJB)) to the Spring platform including: - When and why a migration makes sense - Factors leading to greater or lesser complexity - Strategies and techniques when migrating an existing legacy application to Spring, including the transition period as well as the final goal
- Case study: a discussion of one customer's experience in moving a full stack, traditional Java EE 1.4 application (including the use of EJBs and messaging), originally deployed on WebLogic, to a Spring-based architecture with deployment on Tomcat
