What’s Tomcat

Apache Tomcat is an open-source web server and servlet container developed by the Apache Software Foundation. It implements several Java EE specifications such as Java Servlet, JavaServer Pages (JSP), WebSocket, and Java Expression Language (EL), providing a robust environment for deploying Java-based web applications.

 

We will be covering the following:

 

  1. Deployments: Tomcat acts as a servlet container, providing an environment for running Java servlets and JavaServer Pages (JSP). Servlets are Java classes that dynamically process requests and generate responses, while JSP allows developers to create dynamic web content using Java code embedded in HTML pages.
  2. HTTP Server: Tomcat serves as a web server capable of handling HTTP requests and responses. It supports various HTTP methods such as GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, and more.
  3. Clustering and Load Balancing: Tomcat supports clustering and load balancing, allowing multiple Tomcat instances to work together to handle increased traffic and provide high availability. This feature is essential for scaling web applications in a distributed environment.
  4. Security: Tomcat provides features for securing web applications, including SSL/TLS support for encrypted communication.
  5. Embedded Tomcat: Tomcat can be embedded within other Java applications, allowing developers to create self-contained web applications that can be deployed and run without the need for a separate Tomcat installation.
  6. Tomcat on Docker: Working on tomcat using docker container.

Overall, Apache Tomcat is a versatile and powerful web server and servlet container that provides a reliable platform for developing and deploying Java-based web applications. It is widely used in both development and production environments due to its ease of use, scalability, and robustness.
