We try to always use apache for static content and tomcat for application content. The only issues we had are when the static content needs to be protect in someway. As for speed there is only a small hit serving the static content in tomcat as opposed to apache. Phil Steve O'Hara wrote:

Some nice anecdotal evidence/advice, thanks a lot. I've got a follow-on question - does anyone have any experience of the benefits (if there are any) of splitting the delivery of application pages between static and servlet i.e. have Apache/IIS serve the static pages and Tomcat/Resin/Jetty the

Here is where Jetty shines. It has a snappy and efficient HTTP implementation; no need to use Apache for most apps. S |\_._/| .-. E | o o |_ / / S _.( T ) `./ / ---(((-`-(((- On Oct 3, 2006, at 7:52 PM, Steve O'Hara wrote: Some nice anecdotal evidence/advice,

Oracle's J2EE server is based off Orion. I would guess their servlet container comes straight from Orion as well. Regards. On Sun, 2006-10-01 at 13:14 -0400, Geir Magnusson Jr wrote: Geronimo and JBoss use Tomcat. Geronimo also offers a distribution with Jetty. Glassfish now has their

I've been wondering about this myself, and was about to ask on tomcat-user (fully expecting a few flames), but now that it's been brought up here.. what's the latest on Resin? I keep hearing (here and there) that Resin kicks a lot of Tomcat butt, but I've been subscribed to the resin-interest

We use Resin Pro for our production servers ... I'll have to admit I don't get very deeply involved in it, but the guy who admins them swears by it ... its (apparently) faster and uses less memory than tomcat. Alain gb1071nx wrote: I've been wondering about this myself, and was about to ask

Jetty is nice but its lack of dynamic servlet reloading has always been a sore point with me. For deployment Jetty is fine but I'd rather use Tomcat for development. S |\_._/| .-. E | o o |_ / / S _.( T ) `./ / ---(((-`-(((-

To be honest I dont think much in it anymore. Tomcat 5.x is very performant, JBoss uses the same catalina code base. WebSphere has a good reputation for scalability, Jetty starts fast. regards Malcolm Edgar On 10/1/06, Steve O'Hara [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Forgive the slightly off-topic

Geronimo and JBoss use Tomcat. Geronimo also offers a distribution with Jetty. Glassfish now has their own impl, although I don't know it's pedigree. I'd expect it's based on Tomcat. I don't know what WebSphere uses (you could probably guess looking at the jars), nor oracle. geir Steve O'Hara
