Hello everybody,
I am trying to understand in which way tomcat is handling incoming
connections.
We have a spring boot application in production that is using tomcat
embedded (version 8.x) and since we are experiencing some issues with Too
Many Files open, we would like to understand properly in which way the
application is handling incoming connections from the clients.
Is there any resource that explains what is in charge of the operating
system and what is in charge of Tomcat. I would like to understand all the
steps a request goes through in order to be handled and alsohow does the
NIO connector works considering mainly those three parameters:
- maxConnections
- acceptCount
- maxThreads
Thanks a lot
Filippo
