Hi Jehan,

it is a FAQ:
http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/FAQ/Connectors#Q2

In my experience, the only difference is the ability of mod_jk to
pass the SSL_* environment variables using the JkEnv directive,
mod_proxy_ajp cannot do this.

I have written my conclusions to
http://opencms-wiki.org/MultiSite_configuration_instructions_%28apache_%2B_mod_jk%29#mod_jk_or_mod_proxy_ajp_.3F
so please read it there.

Cheers

Martin
