The concept behind HiveMind, and most other dependency-injection microkernels, is to reduce the amount of code in your application and at the same time, make your application more testable. If your applications are like my applications, there is an awful lot of code in place that deals just with creating objects and hooking them together, and reading and processing configuration files.

HiveMind moves virtually all of that logic into the framework, driven by the module deployment descriptors. Inside the descriptor, you describe your services, your configuration data, and how everything is hooked together within and between modules.

HiveMind can do all the grunt work for you; using HiveMind makes it so that the easiest approach is also the correct approach.
