ServletExec Product Configuration

Just Getting Started?

If you're running Microsoft IIS, and you aren't sure whether the Servlet Engine or Application Server configuration is best for you, we recommend using SE AS (unless you have specific reasons to use SE ISAPI).

If you're running Apache, please use ServletExec/AS

Just download the version you need, install, and you're up and running!

ServletExec supports two basic configurations:

In-process Plug-in
Out-of-process Application Server

ServletExec Plug-in, an in-process web server plug-in that adds high-performance servlet and JSP support to Microsoft IIS, Netscape Enterprise Server (NES), iPlanet Web Server (iWS) and Sun ONE Web Server.

ServletExec/ISAPI is the plug-in servlet engine for Microsoft IIS on Windows 2008/Vista/2003/XP/2000.
ServletExec/NSAPI (SE 5.x, 4.x only) is the plug-in servlet engine for
NES/iWS/Sun ONE on Windows 2003/XP/2000 and SPARC Solaris.

ServletExec Application Server, an out-of-process web application server that includes web server adapters for deployment with Microsoft IIS, NES/iWS/Sun ONE/SJSWS and Apache.

ServletExec/AS is available for Windows 2008/Vista/2003/XP/2000 and various UNIX platforms, including SPARC Solaris, Linux, HP-UX and AIX.
