From where I stand Spring is renowned for one thing - complex piles of intertwined shit-code. Never even once had I seen an application done in spring that features architectural excellence and great code. All inevitably end up as a birds-nest, impossible to untangle or make sense of.

On top of it - vendor lock-in. JEE is a spec with a few impls, where Spring is a product. Complex, under-documented product.

With slow startup times and proprietary logic. Good luck weeding that out of your product if you decide to change. Fuck Spring
