Spring's JDBC stuff can be used without any other parts of Spring, no XML, no annotations, no reflection-based injection. It provides a reasonably functional-like interface to handling ResultSets, and with a little pain it improves over straight JDBC in terms of specifying variable numbers of parameters safely (e.g., an IN clause).
