You have nothing special to do to integrate Jasypt with Spring, as all of the encryption tools (digesters and encryptors) in jasypt have the adequate design to be correctly instantiated and dependency-injected from a Spring application context.

Instead of focusing on high-throughput proprietary protocols and high-efficiency data planes to distribute and deliver the data, we could use battle tested solutions: HTTP and your favorite browser. It just so happens that there are more Javascript processors around the world (every browser can run it) than for any other language out there – a perfect data processing platform.
Google's server farm is rumored to be over six digits (and growing fast), which is an astounding number of machines, but how hard would it be to assemble a million people to contribute a fraction of their compute time? I don't think it's far-fetched at all as long as the barrier to entry is low. Granted, the efficiency of the computation would be much lower, but we would have a much larger potential cluster, and this could enable us to solve a whole class of problems previously unachievable.

XStream is a simple library to serialize objects to XML and back again.# ase of use. A high level facade is supplied that simplifies common use cases.
# No mappings required. Most objects can be serialized without need for specifying mappings.
# Performance. Speed and low memory footprint are a crucial part of the design, making it suitable for large object graphs or systems with high message throughput.
# Clean XML. No information is duplicated that can be obtained via reflection. This results in XML that is easier to read for humans and more compact than native Java serialization.
# Requires no modifications to objects. Serializes internal fields, including private and final. Supports non-public and inner classes. Classes are not required to have default constructor.
# Full object graph support. Duplicate references encountered in the object-model will be maintained. Supports circular references. -

"It was a mentally demanding day," Dravid said. "I thought in the first session New Zealand came out and bowled well. They knew they had a sniff and they had their tails up. They came and really challenged me and Gautam up there in the first session. It was a tough day mentally, and hats off to Gautam for being there through till the end of the day. He showed at lot of character. A Test innings like this will go a long way in a young career. He will learn a lot from a day like this in Test cricket

I haven’t seen the replays, but from reading a couple of articles on the net it seems like Rahul Dravid was unlucky to be given out. We had toiled hard for a breakthrough and finally Dan got one that looked like it got some bat onto pad and off to Howza [Jamie How] at short leg. Dravid had been extremely patient, 62 off 220 balls, that kind of patience is what he’s built a career on. Great to watch from the best seat in the house, but we don’t mind if his next stay is a little shorter!
