I’m planning on giving a couple of presentations on the Spring Framework to a group of consultants. I’ll probably be posting my “notes” (outline, etc) for them here. My first will just be an intro to spring…along the lines of the following rough outline:

• What is Spring Helping to Solve (problems)
• Inversion of Control & Dependency Injection
• Lightweight Container
• Application Context
• Integration with other Tools/Frameworks (Hibernate, Struts, EJB)
• Standalone utilities (jdbc abstraction framework, etc)
• AOP
• Spring MVC
• Declarative Transaction Management

Lots of stuff to hit…but it will be fairly brief on each piece. It should be followed by more advanced presentations that will dig deeper into the details. I may even walk-through Spring’s Petstore…kind of a ‘putting it all together’ presentation.

I should probably read Pro Spring before giving the talks though…just so I don’t miss something.
