On the one hand, we could use the Apache JK Connector to direct requests to
Tomcat. On the other hand, since we’re using IIS7, we could use (and have
seen recommended) the Application Request Routing (ARR) library for IIS to
direct requests for Tomcat.
As it happens, I just went through an exercise trying to use the Microsoft proxying
modules. This was not a "proxy to Tomcat" case, and your needs may be different, but I
happened to bounce on the issue described here :
http://forums.iis.net/t/1163866.aspx
(I needed to be able to pass the authenticated Windows domain user-id to the back-end
server; that is something which mod_jk does, but which ARR seems to have trouble doing).
In other words, I would check very carefully if really all your needs are covered by ARR,
before you invest too much time into it.
Additional OT info : in the end, for my needs, I ended up using the IIS add-on
Isapi_Rewrite module from HeliconTech. It is a reasonable clone of the
mod_rewrite/mod_proxy Apache httpd functionality, although not as complete either.
But for my needs this time it was sufficient.
YMMV
