# Spring Framework

**APIs profiled:** 6

The Spring Framework provides a comprehensive programming and configuration model for modern Java-based enterprise applications on any kind of deployment platform. A key element of Spring is infrastructural support at the application level: Spring focuses on the "plumbing" of enterprise applications so that teams can focus on application-level business logic, without unnecessary ties to specific deployment environments. It includes modules for dependency injection, data access, web development, aspect-oriented programming, and more.
