Web Server

A web server is a computer programs that delivers (serves) content, such as web pages, using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), over the World Wide Web.

Web Server

 

       A web server is a computer programs that delivers (serves) content, such as web pages, using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), over the World Wide Web.

       The term web server can also refer to the computer or virtual machine running the program.

 

       Apache Tomcat (or Jakarta Tomcat or simply Tomcat) is an open source servlet container developed by the Apache Software Foundation (ASF). Tomcat implements the Java Servlet and the JavaServer Pages (JSP) specifications from Sun Microsystems, and provides a "pure Java" HTTP web server environment for Java code to run.

 

       One of the slickest pieces of software to come from JavaSoft recently is the Java Web Server (formerly known as Jeeves). While the Java Web Server can be used for serving up Web sites just like any other Web server (using SSL, CGI scripts, authentication and more), its ability to use Java servlets is what makes it stand out from other Web servers.

 

       For the developer that dabbles in Java programming, servlets can be used to turn the Java Web Server into their own personal Web processor.

 

       BEA Systems' WebLogic is a server software application that runs on a middle tier, between back-end databases and related applications and browser-based thin clients.

 

       WebLogic is a leading e-commerce online transaction processing (OLTP) platform, developed to connect users in a distributed computing environment and to facilitate the integration of mainframe applications with distributed corporate data and applications.

 

       WebLogic server is based on Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE), the standard platform used to create Java-based multi-tier enterprise applications.

 

       J2EE platform technologies were developed through the efforts of BEA Systems and other vendors in collaboration with the main developer, Sun Microsystems. Because J2EE applications are standardized modules, WebLogic can automate many system-level tasks that would otherwise have demanded programming time.
