Java Enterprise 101??? Spring is not Java Enterprise, it's another stack

JEE is technically another stack, yes. But the basuc patterns and principles are the same, even the terms are interchangeable. When I say "Java Enterprise" I mean "Java as it is being used in Enterprise Applications". I did this distinction in the previous article (which is linked in the beginning of this article), I felt that repeting it wouldn't benefit anyone. Apparently I was wrong.
