Answer 1

Spring is a framework which helps to connect different components together. There are many modules for IOC, AOP, Web MVC etc.Spring Framework is an open source application framework and inversion of control container for the Java platform.

Spring MVC (Model–view–controller) is one component within the whole Spring Framework, to support development of web applications.
