Yes, they should be of scope
singleton.Services should be stateless, and hence they don’t need more than one instance.
Thus defining them in scope
singletonwould save the time to instantiate and wire them.singletonis the default scope in spring, so just leave your bean definitions as they are, without explicitly specifying thescopeattribute.You can read more about scopes in the spring docs.
