Major Upgrade to Elsevier Manuscript Submission Service

Calvin Matthews has implemented a major stack upgrade for the Elsevier Manuscript Submission Service. Working with a globally distributed team across 3 continents he has upgraded the service to use the latest Java and Spring technologies. He cleaned up the build scripts and dependencies and migrated the product from legacy hibernate to JPA annotations and Spring Data. He implemented third party system integrations such as ImageMagick and AWS S3 file persistence.
