These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated: 1 1 00:00:01,280 --> 00:00:03,460 So let's look at the release timeline. 2 2 00:00:03,460 --> 00:00:06,710 So here's the timeline for J2EE, or Java EE. 3 3 00:00:06,710 --> 00:00:08,800 Started off in '99, moved all the way down 4 4 00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:12,520 to our current state here of Java EE 7 in 2013, 5 5 00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:17,520 Java EE 8 which is coming real soon, 2016/2017. 6 6 00:00:17,620 --> 00:00:22,620 And then, basically around the 2001/2003 timeframe, 7 7 00:00:23,030 --> 00:00:24,680 that's when everyone was just kind of fed 8 8 00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:26,060 up with Enterprise JavaBeans 9 9 00:00:26,060 --> 00:00:28,240 and just didn't want to do it anymore. 10 10 00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:31,910 So that's when Spring 1.0 came out, around 2004 11 11 00:00:31,910 --> 00:00:34,100 because prior to that, EJBs were just horrible 12 12 00:00:34,100 --> 00:00:35,650 and no-one wanted to use it anymore. 13 13 00:00:35,650 --> 00:00:36,650 So you came out with Spring, 14 14 00:00:36,650 --> 00:00:39,275 Spring 1, Spring 2, Spring 3, and so on. 15 15 00:00:39,275 --> 00:00:42,410 One thing that's interesting here is that the folks 16 16 00:00:42,410 --> 00:00:45,180 at Sun Microsystems at the time before they were acquired 17 17 00:00:45,180 --> 00:00:48,856 by Oracle, at the time they realized, "Whoa, 18 18 00:00:48,856 --> 00:00:51,617 "What's this Spring thing and whoa, why is everyone 19 19 00:00:51,617 --> 00:00:55,020 "moving towards it and why's everyone using it now?" 20 20 00:00:55,020 --> 00:00:56,630 Mainly because of EJB. 21 21 00:00:56,630 --> 00:00:58,140 Folks were tired of EJB. 22 22 00:00:58,140 --> 00:01:00,750 So the folks at Sun actually went back and kind of, 23 23 00:01:00,750 --> 00:01:05,320 re-engineered or re-wrote EJB to make it simpler 24 24 00:01:05,320 --> 00:01:07,300 and make it easier to use. 25 25 00:01:07,300 --> 00:01:11,810 So that came around the 2006/2009 timeframe. 26 26 00:01:11,810 --> 00:01:15,630 So effectively, by the time you made it to Java EE 6, 27 27 00:01:15,630 --> 00:01:17,010 they'd actually cleaned up the problems 28 28 00:01:17,010 --> 00:01:19,110 that they had with EJB and actually made it a little 29 29 00:01:19,110 --> 00:01:20,250 bit easier to use. 30 30 00:01:20,250 --> 00:01:21,690 So effectively, the same thing as Spring. 31 31 00:01:21,690 --> 00:01:23,050 It has the Inversion of Control, 32 32 00:01:23,050 --> 00:01:24,460 it has Dependency Injection. 33 33 00:01:24,460 --> 00:01:26,885 So current day here, Java EE 7, 34 34 00:01:26,885 --> 00:01:31,520 you can really do everything that Spring can do, 35 35 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:32,610 with Java EE 7. 36 36 00:01:32,610 --> 00:01:34,310 So you can do all the annotations, 37 37 00:01:34,310 --> 00:01:38,770 no XML stuff, just like Spring and it's really easy 38 38 00:01:38,770 --> 00:01:40,010 to do now. 39 39 00:01:40,010 --> 00:01:43,200 The only problem though is that they were just a little bit 40 40 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:47,040 too late and unfortunately, EJB just kind of has a bad name 41 41 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:52,040 or a bad reputation and also, Spring has huge momentum, 42 42 00:01:53,450 --> 00:01:54,760 huge market share. 43 43 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:56,430 So there's a lot of Apps that are already 44 44 00:01:56,430 --> 00:01:58,071 out there written using Spring 45 45 00:01:58,071 --> 00:02:00,470 and there's a lot more that are going to be created 46 46 00:02:00,470 --> 00:02:01,303 using Spring. 47 47 00:02:01,303 --> 00:02:03,407 So that's why Spring is very popular now 48 48 00:02:03,407 --> 00:02:05,410 and kind of why it's still popular. 49 49 00:02:05,410 --> 00:02:06,880 It's a lightweight framework, it's simple, 50 50 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,950 easy to use and a lot of developers like it. 51 51 00:02:09,950 --> 00:02:13,360 And they basically ran away from the old days of EJB 52 52 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:14,990 and J2EE. 53 53 00:02:14,990 --> 00:02:16,630 So that's kind of the big spiel. 54 54 00:02:16,630 --> 00:02:19,170 But really now, if you put both technologies 55 55 00:02:19,170 --> 00:02:22,680 side by side, you can do the same with either one. 56 56 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:24,510 But again, the whole reputation thing 57 57 00:02:24,510 --> 00:02:26,103 and also, the momentum thing. 58 58 00:02:27,110 --> 00:02:29,743 So as I mentioned, Spring is very popular, 59 59 00:02:30,792 --> 00:02:31,810 it has a lot of market share, 60 60 00:02:31,810 --> 00:02:33,590 it has a lot of projects written in it. 61 61 00:02:33,590 --> 00:02:35,990 And Spring is still in demand. 62 62 00:02:35,990 --> 00:02:38,540 It's the most sought after Java skillset by employers 63 63 00:02:38,540 --> 00:02:39,680 and recruiters. 64 64 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,500 And, this is really funny, I actually have a friend 65 65 00:02:42,500 --> 00:02:44,950 of mine, I used to work with him on a previous job, 66 66 00:02:44,950 --> 00:02:47,300 he's actually in the process now of interviewing 67 67 00:02:47,300 --> 00:02:50,008 for a new position and I spoke with him last week. 68 68 00:02:50,008 --> 00:02:51,757 He sent me a message and he said, 69 69 00:02:51,757 --> 00:02:52,590 "Hey." 70 70 00:02:52,590 --> 00:02:55,077 and this is his actual text message, 71 71 00:02:55,077 --> 00:02:57,797 "Man, everybody and their mama keeps asking 72 72 00:02:57,797 --> 00:02:58,997 "me about Spring. 73 73 00:02:58,997 --> 00:03:01,620 "You better get started on that Udemy course lol." 74 74 00:03:01,620 --> 00:03:04,220 And again, this is some American slang here, 75 75 00:03:04,220 --> 00:03:05,380 everybody and their mama meaning, 76 76 00:03:05,380 --> 00:03:07,940 basically every recruiter he's talked to 77 77 00:03:07,940 --> 00:03:09,942 and every employer he's interviewed with, 78 78 00:03:09,942 --> 00:03:12,900 they are asking him a good deal about Spring. 79 79 00:03:12,900 --> 00:03:15,410 So again, very good skillset for you to have 80 80 00:03:15,410 --> 00:03:16,363 on your resume. 81 81 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,320 So you may have the question, what should you do? 82 82 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:20,620 Should you learn Spring? 83 83 00:03:20,620 --> 00:03:22,410 Or should you learn Java EE? 84 84 00:03:22,410 --> 00:03:25,210 And my answer's that you should learn both. 85 85 00:03:25,210 --> 00:03:26,043 Right? 86 86 00:03:26,043 --> 00:03:27,900 The reason is because now you'll be flexible 87 87 00:03:27,900 --> 00:03:30,250 in the job market and if you go on a job interview, 88 88 00:03:30,250 --> 00:03:32,350 or you join a new project team, 89 89 00:03:32,350 --> 00:03:34,540 you'll be able to handle either one of them. 90 90 00:03:34,540 --> 00:03:38,040 And a really cool thing about it is that a lot of the skills 91 91 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,580 are interchangeable, especially now since Spring and Java EE 92 92 00:03:41,580 --> 00:03:44,660 are kind of in line, or in sync with their feature set. 93 93 00:03:44,660 --> 00:03:48,306 So once you learn how to do MVC in one framework 94 94 00:03:48,306 --> 00:03:50,810 then learning how to do MVC in another framework 95 95 00:03:50,810 --> 00:03:51,990 is similar. 96 96 00:03:51,990 --> 00:03:54,516 Implementing it is very similar between Java EE 97 97 00:03:54,516 --> 00:03:55,940 and also with Spring. 98 98 00:03:55,940 --> 00:03:59,470 So I'd say learn both of them and you'll learn Spring 99 99 00:03:59,470 --> 00:04:00,900 in this class for sure, 100 100 00:04:00,900 --> 00:04:02,810 I'll show you how to use Spring MVC, 101 101 00:04:02,810 --> 00:04:05,320 and also I'll show you how to hook all this into a database 102 102 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:06,560 using Hibernate. 103 103 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,120 And then I have a lot of other courses 104 104 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:09,970 that cover some of the Java EE technologies 105 105 00:04:09,970 --> 00:04:12,680 like JSP, Servelet and JSF, if you wanted 106 106 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:14,803 to go and check out some of my other courses 107 107 00:04:14,803 --> 00:04:17,480 on learning those other Java EE technologies. 108 108 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:19,098 Anyway, I say learn them both, 109 109 00:04:19,098 --> 00:04:21,050 you're a smart person, right. 110 110 00:04:21,050 --> 00:04:22,930 And it's easy to pick up on them once you learn 111 111 00:04:22,930 --> 00:04:26,680 one technology it's easy to jump into the next technology. 112 112 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:28,650 So anyways, I'd recommend picking 113 113 00:04:28,650 --> 00:04:30,150 up both of those technologies. 114 114 00:04:31,970 --> 00:04:34,080 So this kind of wraps up the video. 115 115 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,630 I wanted to give you some motivation on why Spring. 116 116 00:04:36,630 --> 00:04:38,440 Give you a little bit of background on the history 117 117 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:42,350 of J2EE, and kind of where Spring came into play. 118 118 00:04:42,350 --> 00:04:43,960 In the following videos I'll give you 119 119 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:45,780 a more formal discussion of Spring 120 120 00:04:45,780 --> 00:04:48,250 as far as the various components of the framework 121 121 00:04:48,250 --> 00:04:50,580 and then of course, we're going to start diving 122 122 00:04:50,580 --> 00:04:53,100 in to writing code using Spring. 123 123 00:04:53,100 --> 00:04:55,060 So we have a lot of good things coming up here, 124 124 00:04:55,060 --> 00:04:56,610 I'll see you in the next video. 10723
