Data Access with JDBC

The value provided by the Spring Framework JDBC abstraction is perhaps best shown by the sequence of actions outlined in the following table below. The table shows which actions Spring takes care of and which actions are your responsibility.spring-doc.cn

Table 1. Spring JDBC - who does what?
