        // Create the 'root' Spring application context
        final AnnotationConfigWebApplicationContext rootContext = new AnnotationConfigWebApplicationContext();
        // Default active profiles can be overridden by the environment variable 'SPRING_PROFILES_ACTIVE'
        rootContext.getEnvironment().setDefaultProfiles("prod");
        rootContext.register(AppConfig.class);

        // Manage the lifecycle of the root application context
        sc.addListener(new ContextLoaderListener(rootContext));
    }
}
