Should I use Spring MVC in AEM Sling

[creative83]

Hi,

I am writing from scratch. I have two options:

1) Write my integration module which calls backend service using Spring MVC.

2) Write using Sling only and call service. 

Points need to take care while choosing one:

- If I have multiple form submit then I will end up with multiple servlet if it is sling instead of if it is Spring it will be taken care by Spring Dispacher.

- Spring has it's own Validation and binding feature. 

Wanted to check if I can still get features like Spring using Sling itself or Spring is advisable?

The best of Sling, powered by Spring == http://neba.io

Or to be even more precise: http://neba.io/userguide.html#springmvc

Thanks,

Peter

AEM does not come with Spring framework files.I would advice against it as it may lead to conflicts. Try and use Sling as much as possible.
