At the core of batch processing is an understanding of the basic concepts and patterns common to most batch products. In this course, Getting Started with Spring Batch 4, you will learn these concepts and patterns in the context of one of the oldest and most mature open source batch frameworks available. First, you will learn about why you may need batch processing, including its benefits and drawbacks. Next, you will explore the foundation of Spring Batch terminology and offerings. Finally, you will follow along in a demonstration of building a full, production-ready Spring Batch job that reads input from a file, processes, and then outputs the information to a database. When you are finished with the course, you should have the basic knowledge needed to start building your own batch jobs using the Spring Batch framework.
