Apache Tomcat (called "Tomcat" for short) is a free and open-source implementation of the Jakarta Servlet, Jakarta Expression Language, and WebSocket technologies. [2] It provides a "pure Java" HTTP web server environment in which Java code can also run. Thus it is a Java web application server, although not a full JEE application server.
Common Gateway Interface. In computing, Common Gateway Interface ( CGI) is an interface specification that enables web servers to execute an external program to process HTTP or HTTPS user requests. [1] Such programs are often written in a scripting language and are commonly referred to as CGI scripts, but they may include compiled programs. [2]
Jakarta Server Pages ( JSP; formerly JavaServer Pages) [1] is a collection of technologies that helps software developers create dynamically generated web pages based on HTML, XML, SOAP, or other document types. Released in 1999 by Sun Microsystems, [2] JSP is similar to PHP and ASP, but uses the Java programming language .
Web container. A web container (also known as a servlet container; [1] and compare "webcontainer" [2]) is the component of a web server that interacts with Jakarta Servlets. A web container is responsible for managing the lifecycle of servlets, mapping a URL to a particular servlet and ensuring that the URL requester has the correct access-rights.
Jakarta Servlet. A Jakarta Servlet, formerly Java Servlet is a Java software component that extends the capabilities of a server. Although servlets can respond to many types of requests, they most commonly implement web containers for hosting web applications on web servers and thus qualify as a server-side servlet web API.
Data access object. In software, a data access object ( DAO) is a pattern that provides an abstract interface to some type of database or other persistence mechanism. By mapping application calls to the persistence layer, the DAO provides data operations without exposing database details. This isolation supports the single responsibility principle.
Jakarta Enterprise Beans ( EJB; formerly Enterprise JavaBeans) is one of several Java APIs for modular construction of enterprise software. EJB is a server-side software component that encapsulates business logic of an application. An EJB web container provides a runtime environment for web related software components, including computer ...
The Jakarta Standard Tag Library ( JSTL; formerly JavaServer Pages Standard Tag Library) is a component of the Java EE Web application development platform. It extends the JSP specification by adding a tag library of JSP tags for common tasks, such as XML data processing, conditional execution, database access, loops and internationalization .
