Through our trainings, you benefit from the wide experience and architectural expertise of our team. We bring that experience to you in a highly interactive, intensely hands-on setting.

The Core Spring course is led by Triforks SpringSource Certified engineers. We do not only focuses on explaining Spring features and how to use them, but also on fundamental architectural issues. It’s important to know how to use certain parts of a framework, but it’s even more important to be able to decide when to use them.

Assumptions

We assume participants have a good understanding of the core Java APIs, as well as a basic knowledge of general J2EE concepts and APIs such as JTA and the Servlet API. As we cover object-relational mapping technologies (ORM) in this course as well, we assume basic knowledge of ORM concepts.

Lab Work

Since this class focuses on Spring as well as the theory of developing lightweight applications that are maintainable and extensible from the ground up, it is 40% theory-oriented. There is 60% lab-work.

Since lab work is a major part of the course, you use a computer when taking this course. For scheduled public training events, we generally (unless otherwise indicated) provide a fully configured lab PC for your use. You may bring your laptop, but it is not necessary. For on-site trainings, SpringSource also offers the possibility of arranging a development machine for you. More information about the availability of computers is available when registering for this course.

Day 1 – Spring Framework Foundations

  • Introduction to the lightweight container architecture and the Spring Application Context
  • How Dependency Injection and Test-Driven Development allow you to develop consistently structured, highly configurable, easily testable applications quickly
  • How Spring helps you write better, more cohesive code, with a discussion of relevant Object-Oriented design patterns
  • Hands-on labs based upon a realistic business case to be extended throughout the course

Day 2 – Effective Middle-Tier Architecture

  • Pragmatic Spring Aspect-Oriented Programming in the middle-tier, with examples and without buzzwords
  • Effective persistence: how to build a persistence layer with Spring in best-practice fashion
  • Analysis and tradeoffs of relevant persistence strategies, including Hibernate and Spring JDBC
  • Transaction management strategies with Spring at the service layer
  • Middle-tier unit and integration test strategies

Day 3 – Implementing Enterprise Information Connectivity

  • Understanding ORM and Hibernate with Spring
  • An overview of Spring Web MVC, Spring JavaScript, Spring Web Flow and Spring Faces
  • Configuring Spring-managed services for remoting without any code
  • Designing contract-first web services with Spring Web Services

Day 4 – Integration with Enterprise Services

  • Understanding Spring Security and role-based access
  • Building in manageability with Spring JMX
  • Configuring Message-Driven POJOs with Spring JMS
  • Understanding SpringSource Enterprise Solutions

In this course, students build a Spring-powered JEE application that demonstrates the Spring Framework in an intensely productive, hands-on setting. Completion of this course entitles each student to waive the registration fee for the SpringSource Certified Professional Examination.
