Apache and Tomcat: a bad practice

[Vic Cekvenich <vc...@basebeans.com>]

Lot's of Apache to Tomcat questions.
In the past, (Hardware sales) people would say you need a html server 
(Apache) and a jsp server (Tomcat).

Now.... Tomcat can server HTML pages very fast and can do SSL, etc.

There is no reason to maintain and configure in operations 
communications between the two.

Recomendation: It is *a good practice to deprecate Apache!, and use 
Tomcat*  (or other J2EE, such as Resin) as your only server, SSL and 
HTML, etc.
The speed is just fine.


There are only a few exceptions, such as you need CGI, but you can save 
money, time now, but de-instaling Apache and put Tomcat on port 88 and 443.
