Open Liberty is a lightweight, open-source Java runtime designed for building and running cloud-native microservices.

It supports modern development standards like MicroProfile and can run in any environment.

Key Features:

Lightweight runtime with fast startup times
Jakarta EE 8 and MicroProfile compatibility
Hot deploy capability for developer productivity
Zero-configuration with server.xml or annotation-based setup

Use Cases:

Developing and running cloud-native Java microservices
Building enterprise web applications with modern Jakarta EE standards

tomcat – Tomcat is a servlet container only, lacking full Jakarta EE support
wildfly – WildFly is a heavier application server with broader EE features but slower startup
