| < < | Java application servers are available from a bunch of commercial vendors like Sun, IBM, BEA, Oracle, etc but there are some compelling open source options, too. They tend to work well, and the price is right, but the documentation is often weak. J2EE: JBoss http://www.jboss.org/ is the leading open-source "J2EE" container. I put "J2EE" in quotes because it's Sun's trademark and JBoss has not yet been certified compliant with the spec, although that's in process. JBoss works well but the documentation (even the stuff you pay for) is weak. It comes with an integrated Tomcat servlet container so it's a good way to get started with J2EE. | |||||||

| Servlet: Tomcat http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/ is the reference implementation of Servlets and JSP. I've used it standalone and integrated with JBoss and it's pretty sweet. Back in the 3.x days it was slower than Jetty but I've heard that 5.x is comparable. | ||||||||
