Tools and Frameworks Developers Love To Use
Millions of developers choose SpringSource technologies to simplify enterprise Java development and dramatically improve productivity and application quality. SpringSource employs the open source leaders who created and drive innovation for Spring, the de facto standard programming model for enterprise Java applications, as well as the thought leaders within the Groovy and Grails open source communities.
Our focus is clear: We create powerful and productive technology that developers love to use.
Spring
SpringSource leads enterprise Java innovation with Spring, the de facto standard component model for enterprise Java, rich web, and enterprise integration applications. Millions of developers use Spring because it provides centralized configuration and a consistent programming model for declarative transactions, declarative security, messaging, remoting, Web Services, persistence integration, MVC, Web Flow, rich web, enterprise integration, and batch processing. Unlike the traditional Java EE platform, Spring enables all of these capabilities to be consumed in a lightweight, a-la-carte manner.
Groovy & Grails
Grails is a rapid web application development platform built on Spring and based on Groovy, the leading dynamic language for the Java platform. The combination of Groovy and Grails offers productivity benefits rivaling Ruby on Rails, but on the proven, scalable, and seamlessly integrated Java platform. Groovy and Grails helps development teams embrace agile methodologies, deliver quality applications in less time, and focus on what really matters: creating high quality, easy to use applications that delight users.
