Preferred Platform for Tomcat5
Excluding Windows, is there a particular platform that works better with
Tomcat5? What are members of this list using for a production
installation of Tomcat?
Re: Preferred Platform for Tomcat5
Posted by Hari Mailvaganam <ha...@gmail.com>.
Solaris 9
JVM 1.4.2_06
Tomcat 5.0.28
Any *NIX variant should be within an expected tolerance bandwidth - as
long as a stable Tomcat and JVM version is used.

I have one word of advice: DON'T USE AIX! I am in the middle of a
(forced) migration from Solaris to AIX and it sucks ball peen hammers.
The Solaris installs were running like a top for over a year. In
another incarnation, I have Tomcat running for 4 years with nary an
issue (just some issues with OOM errors when the DB started hanging on
bad SQL).

I've usually used different distros of Linux. Mainly Slackware (8.x,
9.x & 10.x) for 32bit x86 machines and Fedora Core 3 x86_64 on the
Opteron systems. I do stripped down installs, no X, no sound, etc..,
basically installing only what the server needs.
So far so good. The Slackware boxes have been running flawless for a
few years and have been updated from Tomcat 3.x up to 4.x numerous times
without problems. Actually for production I only have Tomcat 5 on the
new FC3 machines, but I do have it on a Slackware development box and
haven't had an issue.
All boxes are blazingly fast, but our bottleneck is usually mysql, not
tomcat.
Slackware boxes
P4 3.06G w/ HT & 1-2GB ram
2.4.2x kernels
s/w raid 0, mysql 4.0.x, jdk1.4.2, tomcat 4.1.x
2-4 7.2K RPM PATA drives
FC3 boxes
Tyan S2882 boards w/ two 242 Opterons & 4-6GB RAM
3ware 9500S RAID controller (using raid5)
6+ 10K RPM SATA drives
mysql 4.1.x & jdk1.5.x & tomcat 5.0.x

Oh my wife lets me have it with all the old crusty stuff I have sitting
around.
I didnt add my three sun servers from an old job that they gave me when we
took them out of the data center. Funny these $30k machine are just sitting
there waiting for me to have time.

Wow, I thought my home dev environment was old and slow.
makes me wonder how many people bother to upgrade to the latest/newest

The one running debain is a small box former ftp server that I took.
its a 333MHz with 384 MB Ram, and a CPU that is overheating all the time.
should just retire it, but waiting to see if it catches on fire or
something.

I have many.
Tomcat 4,5 On Intel
- Windows 2000 - MySQL - SQL2000
- Windows XP - MySQL
- Debain - MySQL
- Solaris 10 - Oracle - DB2
- Redhat 9 (2machines) - MySQL
- Mac OSX - MySQL
- Fedora 2 - MySQL
- Redhat Enterprise 2 - MySQL
All the machines have between 384 MB and 2 GB of Ram. Some noticable
slowdown on the 384MB machine, but its a piece of ... ummm .. errrr ... fine
craftsmanship to begin with.
