About:
Apache Tomcat 10 is an open-source implementation of the Jakarta Servlet, Jakarta Server Pages, and Jakarta WebSocket technologies. It functions as a pure Java HTTP web server environment for executing Java code. This container provides a robust platform for deploying dynamic web applications.
Key Features:
  • Implements Jakarta Servlet 6.0 and Jakarta Server Pages 3.1 specifications
  • High-performance connection pooling and caching mechanisms
  • Integrated security features including SSL/TLS and authentication support
  • Lightweight core with modular architecture for scalability
Use Cases:
  • Hosting dynamic Java-based web applications and APIs
  • Serving as a development and production environment for Jakarta EE projects
  • Deploying microservices architectures using embedded Tomcat
Alternatives:
  • Jetty – Lighter weight and more suitable for embedded scenarios, though Tomcat offers more comprehensive enterprise features.
  • WildFly – A full Jakarta EE application server, whereas Tomcat is strictly a Servlet container and lighter on resources.
