Which application server should i choose for my project ?
- by Dimitri
Hi folks,
I am currently developing an application for some researchers in my university.It's a small java program that you can use by command line. The next step is to package that program and deploy it to an application server. Some clients program will submit requests to the server who will call the tool that I wrote. Lately, we will add more tools to the server and he has to dispatch the requests to the right tool.
Which application server fits my needs ? I have looked for Tomcat, Jetty and Glassfish but it seems that they are only used for web application.
Is it possible to use those servers in some context different from web context? Which package archive should i use (jar, war) ?
Any advice?
