In-memory databases come with several restrictions making them useful only in the development stages in […]Continue reading
When developing enterprise applications, Spring programmers typically prefer writing data-centric code against a lightweight in-memory database, such as H2 rather than running an enterprise database server such as Oracle, or MySQL. Out of the box, Spring Boot is very easy to use with the H2 Database. In-memory databases are useful in the early development stages […]Continue reading
This is part 6 of the tutorial series for building a web application using Spring Boot. In this post, we look at adding a DAO Authentication provider for Spring Security. We started off with the first part by creating our Spring project using the Spring Initializr. In part 2, we rendered a web page using […]Continue reading
Spring Data project provides integration for most of the popular databases around.
