I am new to GIS and I need some help with the architecture of a new system. The UI will be written using javascript with openlayers 3.

The server should be written in JAVA and as I understand, it can't hold the maps on it's own (too complicated), but has to query and update some kind of a maps server. I'd like some help choosing the right maps server.

A friend recommended mapguide - but I see it's mapguide4j is too complicated and it uses Play framework - We want to use Spring. Or maybe I didn't get that correctly?

It sounds to me like you might want to look at GeoServer and or GeoTools, for the server and combine it with PostgreSQL and PostGIS to hold your data.
