OVH vs Apache Tomcat: What are the differences?
OVH: Dedicated infrastructure for your business. Hundreds of new servers are installed in our 12 datacenters everyday. For our clients, this guarantees bare-metal resources accessible in less than an hour, and the liberty to use it to rollout the software of their choice. The many functions available on our dedicated servers allow our clients to manage their infrastructure autonomously; Apache Tomcat: An open source software implementation of the Java Servlet and JavaServer Pages technologies. Apache Tomcat powers numerous large-scale, mission-critical web applications across a diverse range of industries and organizations.
OVH belongs to "Dedicated Cloud Hosting" category of the tech stack, while Apache Tomcat can be primarily classified under "Web Servers".
"Cost effective" is the top reason why over 51 developers like OVH, while over 76 developers mention "Easy" as the leading cause for choosing Apache Tomcat.
Apache Tomcat is an open source tool with 3.44K GitHub stars and 2.36K GitHub forks. Here's a link to Apache Tomcat's open source repository on GitHub.
According to the StackShare community, Apache Tomcat has a broader approval, being mentioned in 562 company stacks & 419 developers stacks; compared to OVH, which is listed in 66 company stacks and 24 developer stacks.
I was in a situation where I have to configure 40 RHEL servers 20 each for Apache HTTP Server and Tomcat server. My task was to 1. configure LVM with required logical volumes, format and mount for HTTP and Tomcat servers accordingly. 2. Install apache and tomcat. 3. Generate and apply selfsigned certs to http server. 4. Modify default ports on Tomcat to different ports. 5. Create users on RHEL for application support team. 6. other administrative tasks like, start, stop and restart HTTP and Tomcat services.
I have utilized the power of ansible for all these tasks, which made it easy and manageable.
