A file named import.sql in the root of the classpath is executed on startup if Hibernate creates the schema from scratch (that is, if the ddl-auto property is set to create or create-drop). This can be useful for demos and for testing if you are careful but is probably not something you want to be on the classpath in production. It is a Hibernate feature (and has nothing to do with Spring).

You can take a look in spring docs

just to enhance the answer - he can use schema.sql and data.sql files to manualy define the schema and to separate concerns, or to create build or platform specific scripts, as is already stated in the linked docs
