Servlet container

A servlet container is a part of a web server that manages and runs Java-based web applications called servlets. It handles incoming requests from users, processes them through the servlets, and sends back the appropriate responses, such as web pages or data. Essentially, it acts as a middle layer that interprets user actions on a website, executes the necessary code, and ensures smooth communication between the user and the server’s application logic. This setup enables dynamic and interactive websites built with Java technology.
