batch container

[ravkrr]

hello guys,
I am a beginner in batch framework. Could any body guide me to get a better understanding of a 'batch container'. Like for J2ee containers we have web sphere or tomcat, what do we use over here

Regards
Kris

I think the point here is there is no tomcat or websphere for batch processing and that's why spring-batch is being developed. The framework takes care of technical aspects of batch processing such as transactions, restart, configurable tolerance to invalid records, statistics.... leaving you to concentrate on the 'what' instead of 'how' when implementing a batch job.
