Apache HTTP before Tomcat
Hi,
If I put an Apache HTTP server in front of Tomcat, will this influence performance?
Thanks in advance!

Yes, but probably not in the way you are expecting.

Latency goes up somewhere in the two digit millisecond range. Whether
that matters depends on your use cases.
For real life applications performance is dominated by application code
and neighbouring systems (databases, mainframe etc.). Since Apache is
very scalable, in real life cases throughput will not change.
When doing tests, always make a distinction between latency (how long do
requests take) and throughput (how many requests per second are
possible), and keep your investigations focused on the non trivial part
(i.e. not measuring static content).
Finally: your total ressource usage (CPU, Memory) will increase
(Apache+Tomcat).
Regards,
Rainer
