At this point it looks like tomcat 5 will handle your needs.

Look at this for cgi:

By platform I mean the hardware you are running on.

CGI, servlets, jsp etc are all dynamic. HTML, HTM, etc are static. If you
have a large amount of static pages some people will use Apache to serve it
and Tomcat for the dynamic. Although as Tomcat evolves it is no longer a
neccesity as it was in the past.

See above.

Nothing here stands out that would suggest that you need anything other than
Tomcat 5 running alone. But to qualify, I have not done any cgi and only did
a quick take on the documentation. Read it carefully before proceeding. You
may also want to start a new thread and ask the list about any limitations
or concerns that are not addressed in the docs.
