do you (or anyone else) have any information about how much tomcats run in production environments, best with distribution by countries/regions.
Thanks![]()

the book mainly concentrates on 4.0 since that aws stable and out at the time and 4.1 was still in beta. Although there are many good things about .1, many companies would not trust it because it hasnt been out long enough for them so it seemed to be right to be more focussed - the 3.x lines we almost entirely ignored because trying to cover both would have made for a very large book, 50% of which would be useless to most people because the two generations are so different and most people deal with only one.

Hi Vivek and Welcome,
From the title of this book I assume Apache is Integrated with Tomcat? Does this book cover what versions to use as well as how to integrate the two? This is something I know a lot of people have tried to do (including myself) for efficiency reasons.
Thanks for your time,
Ryan

What would be needed for me to look for in a book.
The same info that can be found in the tomcat docs , but a bit of spoon feeding to me.
When I first started using JSERV , then Tomcat many moons ago the most confusing is the first time geting it up and running.
As a beginner with the server I would love to have
a set up given to me to get my servlet running.
Just take me through the steps, deployment directory structure.
where do I put my HelloWorld.class
What do I set to get it to work in a standalone tomcat
How do I get it to work with apache.
=====================
Then as I get my app running need more intimate knowledge memory usuage setting, what and how do I know what my app or apps is using, what to set .
======================
All this available in the Tomcat docs for sure but it is hard to find. If the book had a good index and examples it is well worth the money

well, it very often gets compared with some of the biggies - websphere and weblogic - which is a bit of a mistake. Those have great enterprize facilities and extensions and also are much bigger in scope providing web services and EJB container capabilities.
If you compare it to JRun then personally I think its a lot less buggy but it also requires a much better understanding of the server than Tomcat now requires. I understand that in 4.1 this has been resolved through a comprehensive web manager like jrun has. On the other hand, I have people complaining about how hard it is to set up tomcat (cant see the problem myself) so need to check out both sides.
Something that can be incredibly useful is that JRun provides extensions to the JSP and Tag specifications that get around some issues people often face but it does mean that you tie yourself into that server. Some of these extra features are being incorporated into the next editions of JSP et al but will undoubtedly change in the spec process.
Throughput on the Tomcat I have found pretty good but when for some reason I get better throughput when apache is in front then IIS.
What else - I rarely have to really stretch Tomcat anymore since I understand what I have to and dont have unreasonable demands to make of it.
Personally (and all of the above is tinted with my personal points of view) I find it excellent for web development but would probably go to weblogic for enterprise level apps.

Right price Up to date with respects to the spec conformance
However, performance of Tomcat is questionable.
See discussion
Why Jasper Suck
So I find it pointless that people would spend their time tuning Tomcat - when it will ultimately be deployed on a more robust and performant container e.g. Orion, Jetty
Tomcat is dead
i spent eight hours trying to install tomcat when I could have been playing games
