 =====================
 
-Spring integration with EbeanORM

+Integration with Spring managed transactions.
+
+This project provides an Ebean `ExternalTransactionManager` specifically
+to integrate with Springs JDBC Transaction manager.
+
+You can use Ebean in Spring/Spring Boot *without* this and that case Ebean
+manages the Transactions itself. With Ebean managing the transactions there 
+are some benefits with more control over JDBC batch, getGeneratedKeys
+and a simpler abstraction (as Spring transactions is designed to manage
+multiple resources such as JDBC Transactions and JPA EntityManager and Ebean
+only needs to manage JDBC Transactions).
