This is the first book covering the use of the Spring Framework and integrating the Flex Framework so that enterprise Java developers can now add a Rich Internet Application front end to their 'back end.'

Chris Giametta is the owner and lead architect for AppFoundation Technology Group, Inc. (www.appfoundation.com), specializing in Flex and open source J2EE technologies. He has been involved with Flex since spring 2004, before the release of Flex 1.5. He used Flex and Spring together to set a solid framework to deliver Flex applications to clients in retail, procurement, and web-based projects. Outside of work, Chris enjoys golfing, sporting events, and most importantly, raising his two children, Kaitlyn and Cole, with his wife, Kristi.
