Tonight, I decided to integrate Apache and Tomcat on my VPS to java enable my site. This way, I would be able to run JSPs and Servlets on my website. ![]()
There are still a few tweaks I need to do on the configuration files as well as plan on a load balancing cluster to cope up with my VPS’ limited memory resources. Tomcat is known to be a memory hog but I’m not really planning to host intensive java programs on my website so I guess this would suffice for now. Besides, if ever I hit my limits, I always have the option to upgrade my VPS plan. For now things are quite calm on my server so I guess I’m still within my VPS capacity.
I am also looking into making use of Resin as a java application server for Apache, but I’m really more familiar with Tomcat since I’ve been working on it for several years now. I had tried Resin before and it seems to be ok, so I guess if Tomcat becomes problematic for me, I can always turn to Resin’s direction. ![]()
