 [Preface]





  • Features practical guidelines for installing, configuring, optimizing, and troubleshooting JWS
  • Provides extensive coverage of Java Server Pages (JSP) and security - including authentication, ACLs, and realms
  • Also includes a complete overview of the Servlet API - with real-life coding examples
Dynamic, flexible, and easy to use, the Java Web Server is the first full-fledged Web server written in Java and the first to support Sun's hot new servlet technology. Taylor and Kimmet show you exactly why Java Web Server is the ideal platform for next-generation Web applications.

First, you'll walk through the installation and configuration of Java Web Server on several different operating systems. Next, you'll master key features of the product, including extensible security, virtual hosting, logging, and aliases. You will also learn practical administration, troubleshooting, benchmarking, and optimization techniques. Core Java Web Server delivers:
  • Real development scenarios—and real solutions
  • Tips for improving JWS performance with caching
  • Detailed coverage of session management
  • A rigorous walk-through of JWS security features
Series editor Cay S. Horstmann, co-author of the wildly successful Core Java, brings his unique perspective to the Core Series - books written by serious programmers for serious programmers

Every Core Series book:
  • DEMONSTRATES how to write commercial code.
  • FEATURES dozens of nontrivial programs and examples—no toy code!
  • FOCUSES on the features and functions most important to real developers.
  • PROVIDES objective, unbiased coverage of cutting-edge technologies—no hype!
@ CD-ROM includes extensive sample code, along with tools for streamlining servlet development you won't find anywhere else.
