Jetty VS Apache Tomcat

As described on eclipse.dev/jetty: "Jetty provides a web server and servlet container, additionally providing support for HTTP/2, WebSocket, OSGi, JMX, JNDI, JAAS and many other integrations. These components are open source and are freely available for commercial use and distribution."

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.

So, 9.4.48 fixes the first two CVEs, but the last one doesn't mention 9.4 at all, so I'm not sure if that's left out due to EOL status for 9.4.

If you're doing something pretty simple and need something really lighweight, however, you could go with something like Javalin or even use Jetty directly (the HTTP server which powers Javalin and many other frameworks by default). It's not that hard to do that and that's what I actually would do myself for almost everything... the fewer moving parts you have in your application, the better chances you have of keeping everything up-to-date and the less chance to mess up (with a caveat: bigger frameworks may give you secure defaults that if you're not experienced enough you may not even know about, so it may be better to not go low level if you're new-ish to running web applications securely).

Example: Little Johnny was developing a Java web app and thinking about how he would configure Tomcat to listen to requests and redirect the data into his app... until he remembered this would violate Factor 7! Instead, he decided to declare Jetty as a dependency, keeping the HTTP service inside the app instead of configuring an external web server and then injecting its functionalities. Now, whenever he wants to instantiate another server for this app, all he has to do is installing dependencies and running the app, isn't it convenient?

Hi /r/java! Jetty is considering implementing dynamic Brotli compression, but the current JVM wrapper for Google's Brotli (jvm-brotli) is somewhat ... abandoned.

Multiple applications in the same JVM? Wildfly, Tomcat, Jetty.

Download Eclipse Jetty from the project website. Make sure to download the correct version, depending on the Java and Servlet API versions that your application uses. For example, in the case of Vaadin applications, download Eclipse Jetty 9.

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?
