Web container

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

  (Redirected from Servlet container)

 

 

Web container (also known as a Servlet container) is the component of a web server that interacts with Java 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.

A web container handles requests for servlets, JavaServer Pages (JSP) files, and other types of files that include server-side code. The Web container creates servlet instances, loads and unloads servlets, creates and manages request and response objects, and performs other servlet management tasks.

A web container implements the web component contract of the Java EEarchitecture, specifying a runtime environment for web components that includes security, concurrency, lifecycle management, transaction, deployment, and other services.

List of Servlet containers[edit]

The following is a list of applications which implement the Java Servletspecification from Sun Microsystems, divided depending on whether they are directly sold or not.
