Can you explain this in more detail? Do you mean that, if you were to get Tomcat setup, that nobody from the Internet could access it? That is eitehr good or bad depending in who you are trying to serve (remote users on an intranet: good; remote users on the Internet: bad). > So if I do not need > server side Datasource and connection pooling, I can go with Tomcat. If you already have Weblogic, why not stick with it? I think you'll find that your network ops team will like it better if you play by existing rules rather than asking them to support Tomcat in addition to what they're already doing. > I am very new to J2EE.could you please tell me a bit more about server > side datasource:what it is and examples of how it is used.Do you think > my application needs one?? Basically, a server-side data source is a connection to the database. When you're using Java, this is a JDBC connection. Most DataSources do nice things like connection pooling. The "server-side" moniker refers to where the code/data are stored. For web applications, unless you are using AJAX or pure javscript (or <shiver> jscript or <double shiver> vbscript), nothing you do will be considered anything other than server-side. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD4DBQFHE4iP9CaO5/Lv0PARAhJ8AJ9UhAtOHybRrTH53jhVbbuy5lR8DACVH4Qe HqvLlmNvfc3mfAduEv10cQ== =zbC6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
