Is it possible to connect IIS to TC using HTTP instead of AJP? Several "Tomcat IIS
How-To" articles all mention using AJP (not HTTP) using an ISAPI redirector.
In theory, yes. You'd need to find an HTTP reverse proxy component for IIS.
This looks like the sort of thing you'd need:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/iis/extensions/url-rewrite-module/reverse-proxy-with-url-rewrite-v2-and-application-request-routing
The downside is that you will need to manually configure a lot of the
stuff AJP does "for free". Correctly configuring a reverse proxy is one
of those tasks where all sorts of things can catch you out.
I'd probably look at getting IIS to compress the content instead:
