Tomcat

Tomcat is an open-source web server and servlet container designed to run Java applications. Think of it as a platform that helps manage and serve dynamic content on the internet. It processes requests from users’ web browsers, executes Java code, and generates responses like web pages. Developed by the Apache Software Foundation, Tomcat is widely used because it’s reliable and supports many features essential for building and deploying web applications. It allows developers to create interactive features, while its robust architecture ensures that applications run smoothly for users.
