DeepfakeHTTP VS Apache Tomcat

A new version of DeepfakeHTTP is out! I decided to add a new --dir option, allowing to host static content as static servers do. However, unlike regular static servers, DeepfakeHTTP can also host executable stuff, such as shell scripts or JavaScript. In order to have JavaScript executed on the server side you need to specify 'use server' at the beginning of the code (similar to the well-known 'use strict').

The new release of DeepfakeHTTP brings new features.

DeepfakeHTTP is a web server that uses HTTP dumps as a source for responses.

When I told them that I created DeepfakeHTTP, no one really reacted. Dad said: – Son, I understand that the idea of simulating an HTTP server is interesting, but what am I going to do with this simulator you created?... Will he fix the engine from the hay mower for me, or what?! Daddy took his oil-soaked, frayed-in-time notebook, and went to assemble the engine parts. – No, Dad, my server sure can't fix your motor, I replied sadly and went to bed. At night I dreamed that I was wandering through a junkyard of old, abandoned engines and shouting: – Maybe someone needs an open source mock server, with HTTP dumps under the hood? But there was such a silence around, you could hear the tedious flapping of the wings of a butterfly slowly flying past my eyes... But the engines must have heard me and some kind of switch turned, as I woke up in the morning in a very different mood! I remembered that Dad was always looking for some kind of tool for his technical notes. He had tried Word and LibreOffice Calc and Excel... But something would drift to the side, or go into a different column, or jump to a new page when there was still enough space on this one... Anyway, the oily notebook continued to take its honorable place in Dad's workshop. No, don't get me wrong, I suggested that he do all his business in a text file, but that didn't work out either. "There's no clarity", - Dad said, I want me to put in bolts for KR-18, and all my bolts for KR-18 show up right away. And Uncle Jerry's bolts, too. And that I can see what bolts Uncle Jerry has, and he can see what I have. And that Uncle Jerry and I could both see and update, him at his house and me at mine. It became clear to me that he wanted something like ERP. I thought, what if you don't write any ERP, but simulate it. Simulate it with the hands of Dad and Uncle Jerry. So, let's get down to business! We take a text file, we call it john.txt, and we write:

Manual instrumentation allows you to define your Spans within the code itself rather than relying on automatic instrumentation finding the entry point for a trace. Manual instrumentation is especially helpful for applications that don’t use an application server such as Tomcat, JBoss, or Jetty.

99% is a huge exaggeration. Two essential deployment tools off the top of my head: https://tomcat.apache.org/ https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/AS71/Developer%20Guide.html

Do we still enjoy it? We are running many Vaadin apps in production since that first one. If there are not any specific requirements we use a “modular monolith” concept, which fits our stack best. We pack applications as WAR and deploy them under Apache Tomcat. And yes, we enjoy the development process. It’s very straightforward and Vaadin and SpringBoot fit together well.

JasperReports Server Community requires a Java application server and a database to create a repository in order to work properly. After downloading JRS, the installation process can install Tomcat server and PostgreSQL database automatically for us and the services will run depending on the Jasper server. It's also possible to connect JRS to services already installed on the server. Moreover, while the free version supports the MySQL server, with the paid version you can also use commercial databases, for example, ORACLE Database, as a data repository.

Regarding the venerable Tomcat, they [somewhat] recently added support for Unix domain sockets.

We fronted the server with haproxy LTS. Our initial testing showed roughly and order of magnitude [10x] increase in the number of requests the server could handle.

It's not completely plug-and-play; we still had a write a custom valve to set the request remote ip address and some other TCPish stuff, but nevertheless the capacity far outstripped our need for the technology.

Don't use an installed copy of Tomcat. The layout can be different than expected and permission problems can appear at the worst time. For one, it needs to be able to write to that conf directory. Download a non-platform-specific "core" zip file from tomcat.apache.org instead.

Anytime you use dependencies you make use of code for a purpose that was not originally intended. The apachee web server was named after a patchwork quilt. Many contributors had useful code from commercial projects they contributed to the cause. In networking protocols packets are discarded after a set number of hops, or an expiration date so the internet does not have zombie packets wondering around. The tcp/ip traceroute command uses TTL to find all the collision domains in a request.

If you plan on a full enterprise solution apache server has built in roles, users and corporate tools. It integrates well with Java. Express is much easier in my opinion. You may use xml instead of json. Other than that the front end and backend don't matter. Since ERP is what you are dealing with maybe that is the way to go?
