Web Container vs. Servlet Container

[edit]

Isn't the correct title for this article "Servlet Container". At least Tomcat speaks of being a servlet container... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 193.170.161.222 (talk) 10:42, 10 May 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Tomcat is just one of many. It may have started off as a Servlet Container, -which I do not even know for sure-, but nowadays, there are more than just this one Web-technology abusing the HTTP-protocol. My personal choice would be Web-Dumpster, but feel free to variate on the motive.--84.56.67.43 (talk) 12:42, 22 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

List of Servlet containers

[edit]

The List of Servlet containers is a long list, all under either commercial or non-commercial "web container" headings. I recognized some like Jetty (web server) that I have seen referred to as web containers elsewhere. So should Web container include all of these? --JWB (talk) 00:57, 19 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This page makes the distinction between commercial and non-commercial servlet containers. Would a better distinction be whether the container is open source or not? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.167.223.65 (talk) 07:39, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Also, that particular distinction is not strictly enforced. Or is JBoss somehow both commercial and non-commercial?! -- Jokes Free4Me (talk) 10:09, 6 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
