Spring Integration is motivated by the following goals:
Provide a simple model for implementing complex enterprise integration solutions.
Facilitate asynchronous, message-driven behavior within a Spring-based application.
Promote intuitive, incremental adoption for existing Spring users.
Spring Integration is guided by the following principles:
Components should be loosely coupled for modularity and testability.
The framework should enforce separation of concerns between business logic and integration logic.
Extension points should be abstract in nature but within well-defined boundaries to promote reuse and portability.
