Tomcat hardware requirments

2011-04-05 Thread bfackrell

What are the hardware requirements for Tomcat 7?  I looked (Google and on the
Apache website)

I’m just finishing a college course that taught Java technologies that
interact with Tomcat but I want to know more so I’ve decided to try to build
my own Tomcat server from scrap computer parts that I have.  The first thing
I need to know is: Will my junk even run Tomcat 7?

Thanks for the input!

I just realized (from reading your input) that I was assuming that Tomcat
would also have or be my OS (I was thinking Windows-IIS). :drunk:   So, now
I see that my hardware design is based on the OS which, since I only have
512 MB of RAM will have to be Windows XP.

Thanks again!!

So if I’m just building a standalone server (more just for the experience
than anything else) all I need to be concerned about, as far as hardware
goes, is meeting the requirements of the OS?  

I have already built an HTPC where I play movies and music so, if I
understand correctly, the processor and RAM on the Tomcat server (where the
music and video will be stored) are not important.
