We serve millions daily on Tomcat + Apache + mod_jk. I think you'll be ok with the standard way of running Tomcat.

I would like to know if there are any performance issues using it together with Apache webserver 2.0 and the ajp connector (using mod_rewrite). Is performance expected to be better if we double up Tomcat as a webserver and not use apache at all. I heard an opinion that using apache with tomcat may mean worse performance? The site is a medium traffic site with about 800 concurrent users, about 40 hits per second. We plan on using a hardware load balancer and we were not planning on putting the webserver outside the firewall, tomcat behind the firewall kind of configuration, so our webserver and app server are on the same hardware (Suse Linux). Original idea was to place static files on the webserver (apache 2.0) and servlets/jsps on Tomcat. I appreciate any feedback. Is this list searchable somewhere on the web? So I can search any pervious discussions on this topic? Thanks. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
