Spring vs Dubbo: What are the differences?

What is Spring? Provides a comprehensive programming and configuration model for modern Java-based enterprise applications. A key element of Spring is infrastructural support at the application level: Spring focuses on the "plumbing" of enterprise applications so that teams can focus on application-level business logic, without unnecessary ties to specific deployment environments.

What is Dubbo? A high performance Java RPC framework. It is a high-performance, light weight, java based RPC framework. Dubbo offers three key functionalities, which include interface based remote call, fault tolerance & load balancing, and automatic service registration & discovery.

Spring belongs to "Frameworks (Full Stack)" category of the tech stack, while Dubbo can be primarily classified under "Remote Procedure Call (RPC)".

Spring and Dubbo are both open source tools. It seems that Spring with 31.4K GitHub stars and 20.2K forks on GitHub has more adoption than Dubbo with 28.4K GitHub stars and 18.7K GitHub forks.

Django

Spring Boot

I am a graduate student working as a software engineer in a company. For my personal development, I want to learn web development. I have some experience in Springboot while I was in university. So I want to continue with spring-boot, but I heard about Django. I'm reaching out to the experts here to help me choose a future proof framework. Django or Spring Boot?

Thanks in Advance

Needs advice

Hi, I am new to backend development and trying to make a decision about whether I should choose Nodejs or Spring Boot for a backend developer role. I have done 5 years of Android development and find using Java much better than javascript. Please advise why one is better over others and which one is good for the long term, also please highlight the job opportunities for both.
