Web Server is just for serving static pages. (Apache HTTP Server)
Web Container is for serving static and dynamic pages - Servlet/JSP (Apache 
Tomcat)
Application Server is web container plus EJB container. (Apache Geronimo or 
GlassFish)

Hi,
 
May I know what is the difference between application server and web server? 
The Glassfish server is an application server and does it also takes on the 
role of a web server as well and how?

Peeter
