Where to put business logic in spring mvc framework?

Question

I don\'t know where to put the business logic in spring mvc because I\'m new to it. I have a clue on what to do but because of lack in knowledge in spring mvc, I don\'t know

Answer 1

Many people would recommend to add the business logic to the service layer. I personally find out that's not a great idea, specially when you start testing: you may have to deal either with the persistence and business logic at the same time, or mocking everything around, and then things can get very messy.

I do recommend reading this article before taking any conclusions: The Biggest Flaw of Spring Web Applications

Resuming, the idea would be to move the business logic to the model layer and simplify your services methods.
