在Java-ee服务器上部署Spring应用程序

Question

Can I deploy a Spring java application on all (or at least most) of JavaEE servers ? like Weblogic, JBoss, Webshpere, Tomcat, Jettty etc.

And is there is preferred Java EE server for Spring ?

Answer 1

Yes you can. And no - there isn´t. Errata: you can take a look at the SpringSource dm Server . Be aware that spring is not a java EE implementation. Read this post here .

Answer 2

Yes, you can deploy it on any server, and you can use it on standalone applications and even on mobile applications . It is in no way restricted to web deployment. It is not even restricted to java, there is Spring.NET and even a Python version. However, java and web servers are a common if not the most common use for it.

Currently recommended web server by VMWare/Pivotal (current owner of Spring) is VFabric tcServer , which is a Tomcat fork containing some extra tools and functionality. But server in itself does not matter, Spring is container agnostic.

There is no preferred EE server. VFabric tcServer is a servlet container, not an EE server. It contains " enterprise capabilities " instead, but that's not the same thing . As said however, you can use whichever EE server you want.
