In this section, we will build a part of the course management application using Spring MVC and JDBC. The application will display a list of courses and options for adding, deleting, and modifying courses. We will continue using the project that we created in the previous section. We will learn many of the features of Spring for data access using JDBC as we go along.
First, we will configure our datasource. We will use the same MySQL database that we created in the Creating database schema section of Chapter 4, Creating JEE Database Applications.
