Case Study: Morgan Stanley Spring Usage

This session will explore how and why Spring is being used at a large financial institution. At Morgan Stanley we use Java a lot: What kinds of systems do we develop in Java? Why did we decide to use Spring? What problems did Spring solve for us? How did we adopt Spring across a large enterprise, for established projects as well as for new developments?
