Java Web Servers for Foil 44
1 Originally, the Java Interpreter was incorporated into browsers such as those from Netscape and Microsoft, but the Web server remained a standard one.
2 Now Web servers are being developed in Java itself. This leads to more natural integration of the use of Java applets on the Web browsers and Java applications running on the Web server machine.
  • Java WebServer from Sun - http://jserv.javasoft.com/ - This web server is developed following new Java Server API, which allows for security and encryption servers. WebServer will run Java applications, called servlets, on the server side similarly to CGI scripts.
  • Jigsaw from the W3 Consortium - http://www.w3.org/pub/WWW/Jigsaw - This web server had the most services but is currently being rewritten so that the model for running Java on the server side will be JavaBeans.
