Subject: RE: [WEB400] Java CGI program


In order to invoke Java in response to a browser request you need to use
servlets.  Servlets require a servlet engine, and for the AS/400, that's
either WebSphere or Tomcat.  WebSphere Standard Edition is perfectly
acceptable, and poses very little drain on your system.  I have a little
model 270 here, and overall system use of three quiescent WebSphere servlet
engines is less than one half of a percent of my CPU.  And this is on a
machine with only 1GB of main memory.
