Java Spring

Definitions

1. The Spring ecosystem of Java frameworks for building applications with dependency injection, web MVC, data access, security, and integration support. In modern usage it usually refers to Spring Boot-based services that auto-configure common infrastructure and reduce boilerplate.

   In plain English: It is a popular Java toolkit for building backend applications with a lot of common plumbing already handled.

   Example: "Spin up the new API in Java Spring so we get validation, dependency injection, and Actuator metrics out of the box."
