Jetty Powered by GlobalSolutions
Jetty is a lightweight, scalable, and robust Java-based web server and servlet container. It can run applications like a traditional application server (such as Tomcat or WildFly) in standalone deployment mode, and it also has the ability to operate as a servlet embedded directly in your existing application.
Jetty stands out for its lightweight and flexible nature, making it a versatile choice for various environments — from Linux and Windows to cloud-based systems. It offers advanced features including support for HTTP/2 and WebSocket, a modular architecture, and a robust set of security features including HTTPS, various authentication methods, and protections against common web attacks. Jetty's active development community ensures its continuous evolution to meet emerging trends in web server technology.
We have ensured the image is hardened to be secured from all existing vulnerabilities.
