Hello everyone -
We would like to evaluate Apache/Tomcat as a production-quality deployment for our organization's retail operations. I would appreciate if someone could comment / provide expert opinion on the following:
a) Is Apache web server/Tomcat a proven production option for large-scale deployments (we are looking at about 1000 users served by a single instance of Apache/Tomcat3.x on an AS/400 box]. Now, this might sound silly but we would be extremely happy if someone can allay our concerns :)
Alot will depend on the configuration of the as/400 and the code you are using. What is the number of estimated concurrent users?
b) I believe the default configuration settings for Apache/Tomcat are usuallly appropriate for a medim-sized deployment. Is there any document/web-site/ list mail archive that can guide me on how to arrive at optimum configuration settings? Any information on what to look out for when configuring for medium to large deployments would be of immense help.
You can google for most tidbits and information, if you have a specific question the archives of this list are a good resouce, also there are numerous books on the subject, (which there are several lists of them if you serach the archive). I would however offer one caveat settings, configurations and JVM/application optimizations are like finger prints, and so you can get ideas, but your going to have to see through trial and error what works for your specific application/hardware/software.
c) Are there any performance improvements that I can expect if i upgrade to Tomcat 4.x?
Tons ;)
Thanks in advance for yr help!
best regards vijay
