In Simple Terminology, Spring Boot = Spring Framework + Embedded HTTP Servers – XML / annotations. Here we don’t need to write any XML Configuration. (the reason it has been subtracted in the above explanation.) So firstly, I am going to talk about some benefits of using spring boot over Plain Spring. 1. It is easier to develop Spring Based applications with Java or Groovy. 2. It reduces lots of development time and increases productivity. 3. It avoids writing lots of boilerplate Code. 4. It is easier to integrate Spring Boot Application with its Spring Ecosystem. 5. It provides Embedded HTTP servers. 6. It provides a lot of options to work with embedded and in-memory Databases. The costs that would be uncured to switch to spring boot in OpenMRS, are – ·         Since we do not have to write the XML configuration in Spring Boot, there would be no value of the XML and a few annotations written using Spring. ·         The spring boot will reduce the length of th

To start with, let us first know the basics and understand what is    spring model view   controller   Spring MVC   It is a Java framework which is used to build web applications. It follows the Model-View-Controller design pattern. The model here, contains the data of the application. The view represents the provided information in a particular format. The controller you can see here, contains the business logic of an application. Here, the @Controller annotation is used to mark the class as the controller. Also In Spring Web MVC, the DispatcherServlet class works as the front controller. It is responsible to manage the flow of the Spring MVC application. What is the flow of Spring Web  MVC ? Your question is answered below, As you can see, all the incoming requests are coming through the DispatcherServlet that acts as the front controller. The controller returns an object of ModelAndView. The DispatcherServlet checks the entry of view in the

What actually spring framework is? What it is all about? Source:  https://crunchify.com/simplest-spring-mvc-hello-world-example-tutorial-spring-model-view-controller-tips/ There are a lot of things that application developers in JAVA have to tackle with. That is the reason we have frameworks. Frameworks tackle common application problems by providing structure and common patterns which makes the process of building applications, easier. So spring framework, as its name suggest, is a framework which provides patterns and structure for JAVA applications. In the process, it handles the common things the developers need to do while building a JAVA application. Spring is not just the core framework, but there are a whole lot of projects which are all part of the spring family of projects. In that sense, it is not just a framework, it is an ecosystem. 3 common problems the Spring Framework addresses- 1.         APPLICATION CONTEXT AND DEPENDENCY INJECTION W

“Software architecture should never be an end goal, but a means to an end” I write this blog from the perspective of an inexperienced learner and hence the language adopted here would be in the layman’s terms making it easier to understand. We begin with the most obvious and important question that one should know the answer to before studying the applications of Micro frontend, i.e.  what is meant by the term Micro frontend.  Micro frontend is basically a term for Self-contained Systems or Frontend Integration for Vertical Systems which simply refer to an idea that considers a website or a web app as a composition of features which are owned by independent teams. Each team has a distinct area of business or mission it cares about and specializes in. A team is cross-functional and develops its features end-to-end, from database to user interface. Now we consider the secondary question:  How would using micro frontend development architecture over the traditional mon
