Who This Book Is For

The book is written for anyone who wants to learn about the Tomcat servlet container. You do not have to be a programmer to use Tomcat or this book; all of the Java programming is, as mentioned above, tucked away inside servlets or other components. You may be a system or network administrator who wants to run a small simple web site. You may be an experienced Apache Web Server webmaster who needs to run one or more servlets or JSPs as part of a larger site, or a programmer who is developing Java web components and wants to get up to speed quickly on using Tomcat as a web application server during development and in production. Maybe you're running one of the many Java EE servers that include Tomcat as their web container. For any of these reasons and for any other readers, this book provides an excellent introduction to Tomcat.
