Programación en Java. Uso de Spring Framework: 2ª Edición (Spanish Edition) review

Java es un lenguaje de programación orientado a objetos desarrollado en la década de 90 por un equipo de programadores capitaneado por James Gosling, en la empresa Sun Microsystems. A diferencia de los lenguajes convencionales, que son compilados a código nativo, el lenguaje Java se compila a un bytecode que es ejecutado por una máquina virtual. El lenguaje de programación Java es el lenguaje estándar de la Plataforma Java, pero no su único lenguaje.

La Plataforma Java es el nombre del entorno computacional, o plataforma, creada por la empresa estadounidense Sun Microsystems y vendida a la empresa Oracle hace algunos años. La plataforma permite desarrollar aplicaciones utilizando cualquiera de los lenguajes creados para la plataforma Java, siendo el lenguaje estándar el que lleva su propio nombre: el Lenguaje Java. Una gran ventaja de la plataforma es que no está sujeta a un único sistema oerativo o hardware, ya que sus programas se pueden ejecutar a través de una máquina virtual que puede ser emulada en cualquier sistema que soporte el programación lenguaje C++.

Desde su lanzamiento, en mayo de 1995, la plataforma Java fue adoptada más rápidamente que cualquier otro lenguaje de programación en la historia de la computación. En el año 2004 Java alcanzó la cifra de 3 millones de desarrolladores en todo el mundo. Java continuó creciendo y hoy en día es una referencia en el mercado de desarrollo de software. Java se hizo popular por su uso en internet y hoy en día tiene su entorno de ejecución presente en navegadores, mainframes, sistemas operativo, dispostivos móviles, tarjetas inteligentes etc.

Spring es un framework que da soporte al desarrollo de aplicaciones empresariales en Java, surgió como una alternativa ligera a la compleja plataforma J2EE, ganando muchísima popularidad entre los programadores.
