In regards to the Spring projects, What is the difference between DTO and DAO?

In this project are DTO and POJO the same thing?

The reason Im asking is....Im looking at other Spring examples online and they are using DTO but not DAO.

Any help would be appreciated :-)

I wanted to add about the nice use of DTO is in User Registration

Check this.

I've implemented this in my project 12.

And right there I saw that with User Registration it makes perfect sense to use DTO in Spring
