Last time when I tried to replace Commons Fileupload with pure Servlet API I faced these issues: 1) The Servlet API does not provide hooks to follow the upload progress 2) The Servlet API does not provide a way to cleanup after processing the uploaded files, i.e. the commons-fileupload Cleaner This was 2016 (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-5192) so things may have changed in the meantime!
