Nexus doesn't use a database is what Jason was suggesting.

made to be hosted within an application >server like Tomcat and Websphere.
Is that right?

Nexus is not intended to run in a separate app server. We provide an
embedded Jetty instance to host the app. This allows us to focus on building
the application and not messing around with app server limitations and
compatibility. It will also allow us to do some interesting things down the
road like hot updates of the base app server and application. Jetty is also
able to scale to a much larger load because of the way it handles
connections. 

While it hasn't been a focus for the alphas or beta-1, we will work to
ensure that Nexus can be hooked in via mod_proxy or ajp etc for
infrastructures that require it, but this will reduce performance over raw
jetty.

We have an IRC channel on irc.codehaus.org #nexus and user list
([EMAIL PROTECTED]) where we can discuss this in detail if
you wish.
