Talk:Apache Tomcat

message: Tcat is another commercial offering linked to externally which has been present in the See also list (at the top no less) since 26 June 2012. The edits were performed by a single, unregistered user who also edited Apache Tomcat, Mule (Software), MuleSoft, and the Talk:Apache Synapse pages. The IP is also static and located within commuting distance to MuleSoft which seems a bit fishy to me... PaulMEdwards (talk) 22:13, 9 June 2015 (UTC)

message: I believe the information on Catalina should be merged into the Tomcat article. It is not significant enough on its own. As long as the Catalina_(Tomcat) page redirects to Apache_Tomcat it would be fine. A yes from me.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lantrix (talk • contribs) 07:12, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

message: It's given here that Tomcat is an application server or web-server. But apache tomcat is a webserver only right? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pradeepnnv (talk • contribs) 05:20, 20 March 2008 
: My understanding is that it is both an application server (which can then be proxied through to a web server such as Apache HTTP Server) or that it can host websites itself through its web server interface. ~~ [Jam][talk] 20:32, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It is most definitely an Application Server, because you can deploy application bundles directly into it. Contrast that to the Apache Web Server, which provides CGI capabilities which can be used to build/host applications, but the applications themselves are distinct from the web server. (Okay, please ignore in-process modules like mod_php and mod_perl.) 2600:4040:452A:E000:8935:A079:C6D1:B8A (talk) 19:12, 27 January 2023 (UTC)

message: I think it would be useful (at least for me it would be) to list the similarities and differences of Tomcat vs. Apache Web Server (a brief explanation is offered in immediately preceding section) vs. MicroSoft's Internet Information Server (IIS) vs. other popular servers.  Comparisons can be a helpful learning technique; e.g.,  it might be eaiser to understand what an apple is by comparing it to an orange, banana, or strawberry.

message: Can we add a new section on 64 bit and 32 bit versions...and details thereon including max memory it has actually been used with?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tcat64 (talk • contribs) 15:41, 15 October 2011 (UTC)

message: The deployment section is a copy/paste from the header (intro) of the article. Ended the copy/paste block, and still there are definitions. I think It has nothing to do with "Deployment".

message: The info box says the version number and date of the preview release (8.0.15, Nov 2014) is older than the stable release (8.0.26, Aug 2015).  Is that right?? Mcswell (talk) 01:06, 15 September 2015 (UTC)
