Here, the process is a little bit different. It was quite easy to deploy applications on the tomcat server in Windows. To access it, we use localhost://8080 on Web Browser to view the result.

What we did there, simply build our code on MVC structure (Model-View-Controller), build the Java – Web applications in Spring boot or in Eclipse and deploy it on tomcat server. However, after some time the Apache Tomcat was donated to Apache Software Foundation. Just look upon its versatility! Have you ever thought that how tomcat started off? What purpose did it serve initially?Īpache Tomcat started off as a servlet reference implementation by James Duncan Davidson, a Software Architect at Sun Microsystems and later on it was converted to an open-source. You can use Apache Tomcat on Windows, Ubuntu, CentOS, Debian and so on. Basically tomcat can work upon various operating systems that’s why it is also called cross-platform software.
