Jetty

The latest version of Jetty is a professional open source servlet container. The official version of Jetty isembedded server, userIf you add Jetty to your application Jar file, the application can provide Web service. Jetty softwareIt is written in Java language and supports network and web connections for some stand-alone Java applications.

Jetty software introduction

​​​etty is a lightweight and highly scalable Java-based web server and servlet engine. The goal is to support high-volume, low-latency Web protocols such as HTTP, HTTP/2, and WebSocket provide maximum performance while retaining the ease of use and compatibility derived from years of servlet development. Jetty is a modern, fully asynchronous web server that has a long history as a component-oriented technology that can be easily embedded into applications while still being a powerful tool for webapps. Deployments provide solid traditional distribution.

Jetty software features

   Ease of use

Ease of use is the basic principle of Jetty design. Ease of use is mainly reflected in the following aspects:

Configure Jetty through XML or API; the default configuration can meet most needs; embedding Jetty into an application requires very little code;

   Scalability

Web 2.0 using Ajax In applications where each connection needs to be maintained for a longer period of time, thread and memory consumption will increase dramatically. This makes us worry that the entire program will fall into a bottleneck due to a single component and affect the performance of the entire program. But there is Jetty：

Even when there are a large number of service requests, the performance of the system can be maintained in an acceptable state. Use the Continuation mechanism to handle a large number of user requests and long connections. In addition, Jetty has designed a very good interface, so when a certain implementation of Jetty cannot meet the needs of users, users can very conveniently modify some implementations of Jetty, so that Jetty is suitable for special application needs.

      Ease of embeddability

​ ​ Jetty was designed as an excellent component from the beginning, which means that Jetty can be easily embedded into applications without the need for a program to use Jetty Make changes. To some extent, you can also think of Jetty as an embedded web server.

Jetty can be used as an embedded server. Jetty runs fast and is lightweight. It can be tested from Java. case to control its operation. As a result, automated testing no longer depends on the external environment and automated testing can be successfully implemented.
