As for using it, there's "big jar" packaging (but with the important note that it remains EE webapp based, rather than proprietary): https://github.com/apache/tomcat/tree/trunk/res/tomcat-maven Or you can do it yourself, you need to use Tomcat.init(ConfigurationSource). You can use startup.CatalinaBaseConfigurationSource to replicate the default Tomcat behavior, or implement ConfigurationSource and have more flexibility. A few components don't use that abstraction because they persist configs (JASPIC, storeconfig). Rémy
