Hi All,

Please share your points whether it is good to use thread on web applications?

- If NO/YES, then why so?

Many thanks in advance.

You shouldn't use Threads in any application. You should prefer Executor and ExecutorService instead. They decouple the threading details away.

Thanks for your reply.

Executor and ExecutorService : I will check it. Is it not using Thread?

Nice got some idea to have a look.

Look up J2EE work manager ...

The idea is you create units of work (I mainly work at the moment in Glassfish previously I used Weblogic and I've included some WebSphere info at the end) . Obviously it still results in threads but they are managed / pool'ed by your container and configuration can be exposed by your container.

WorkManager

Just google it for loads of info ...
