The Apache site describes it as an implementation of Jakarta Servlet, Jakarta Pages, Expression Language, WebSocket, Annotations, and Authentication specifications, with Tomcat 10 and later aligned to Jakarta EE and Tomcat 9 and earlier aligned to Java EE. ### Projektgeschichte Apache's heritage page traces Tomcat to Sun Microsystems, where it began as the reference implementation for the Java Servlet and JavaServer Pages specifications. Sun donated the code base to the Apache Software Foundation in 1999, the first Apache Tomcat release was 3.0, and the project became a top-level Apache project in 2005 after leaving the Jakarta umbrella. The official version matrix records the long major-version sequence from Tomcat 3.x through current supported Tomcat 9, 10.1, and 11. It also shows why Tomcat packaging is version-sensitive: each major line maps to particular Servlet/JSP/Jakarta Pages, EL, WebSocket, Authentication, Annotation, and Java runtime requirements. ### Adoptionsgeschichte Apache states that Tomcat powers numerous large-scale, mission-critical web applications across diverse industries and organizations. Its adoption history is also visible in packaging: the input metadata lists Homebrew, Chocolatey, Fedora/DNF, Nix, Scoop, and openSUSE/Zypper names, reflecting Tomcat's role as a default installable Java web container across operating systems. ### Wie es verwendet wird Tomcat is commonly installed to run WAR-style Java web applications, local development servers, CI smoke-test containers, and lightweight production servlet deployments. The `catalina` command is the package-manager-visible entry point, while administrators tune `$CATALINA_BASE/conf/server.xml`, `catalina.properties`, and `tomcat-users.xml`. For maintainers, Tomcat's source workflow also matters: Apache documents `tomcat.git` as the repository containing the Tomcat source code, with active branches for main, 11.0.x, 10.1.x, and 9.0.x, and a GitHub web view. That branch structure is exactly what downstream package maintainers track when choosing stable formula versions. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren Tomcat is package-nerd significant because it is both an application server and an ecosystem compatibility boundary. A package name like `tomcat`, `tomcat@10`, or `tomcat10` carries real meaning about Java version requirements, Java EE versus Jakarta EE APIs, servlet specification versions, config-file compatibility, and how much migration work an application needs. ### Zeitleiste - 1999: Sun donated the Tomcat code base to the Apache Software Foundation; the first Apache Tomcat release was 3.0. - 2005: Tomcat became a top-level Apache project. - 2022: Tomcat 10.0.x reached end of life on 2022-10-31. - 2026: Apache lists Tomcat 11.0.x, 10.1.x, and 9.0.x as currently supported branches. ### Related projects - Official Apache source pages list related Tomcat components including Tomcat Connectors, Tomcat Native, Taglibs, the Tomcat Maven Plugin, and the Apache Tomcat migration tool for Jakarta EE. ### Quellen - - - - - source_facts.package-manager ## Sicherheitshinweise broad file, network, media, or database tool signal. formula declares a Homebrew service. - **Geiger-Risiko:** orange / mittel - broad file, network, media, or database tool signal - formula declares a Homebrew service ## Configuration and credential file locations These source-backed paths show where this package keeps local settings or durable credentials.
