About:
Apache Tomcat 9 is an open-source implementation of the Java Servlet, JavaServer Pages, and Java WebSocket technologies. It provides a pure Java HTTP web server environment for executing Java code. This version aligns with the Servlet 4.0 and JSP 2.3 specifications, making it essential for deploying dynamic Java web applications.
|
Key Features:
- Implements Java Servlet 4.0 and JSP 2.3 specifications
- Lightweight and fast core for embedded deployments
- Robust security manager and realm support
- Integrated management interface for app deployment
|
Use Cases:
- Hosting enterprise-grade Java web applications
- Developing and testing JSP/Servlet based projects locally
- Running as an embedded web server in Java applications
|
Alternatives:
-
Jetty
– Jetty is often lighter and more suitable for embedded scenarios, while Tomcat is the industry standard for full enterprise deployments.
-
Nginx
– Nginx is a high-performance HTTP server and reverse proxy, but it does not execute Java code natively like Tomcat.
