Standalone: yes
Production: I'm not sure, maybe.
Apache recommended as well: yes, at least for static content, since
apache is faster here.

You can put tomcat behind apache so that tomcat handles some urls/paths,
forwards its answers to apache and apache delivers the content to the
client. For the remaining urls (which were not mapped to tomcat), apache
itself processes the whole request.
