So, I reviewed spring for a couple of hours with a web application that
was formerly written with JDBC/JSP/Servlets. From first glance, it
seems as cumbersome as all of the other J2EE components. I am probably
wrong because I haven't worked with it, but from first glance, I kept
wondering, "Is this XML/Bean mapping overkill?"
Probably should have given it more than a day for a rant.

Spring helps me a lot. My business logic isn't scattered with JDBC
code, transaction handling, etc, making it much easier to maintain.
But YMMV

Also, the book J2EE Development without EJB by Rod Johnson

Goes a long way toward describing the intent and considerations of the
Spring Framework

I have changed my tune after working with it. It really getting
easier.
