Decisions

Jetty vs Tomcat

As long as Apache HTTP is needed, mainly for the old PHP code including MediaWiki (Java based JAMWiki may be a replacement ) connection to Apache is needed:

Seems that Jetty can be tailored to use fewer resources than Tomcat, i.e. is

  • better scalable on the main server
  • better on low powered system.

But it is unclear how it works with Apache.

Log4j vs Logback

Log4j originally written by the same person that wrote Logback later.

Logback-classic allows integration with slf4j. http://www.slf4j.org/ says that Wicket and Jetty depend on slf4j. And slf4j is mentioned above already. (slf4j-api-1.5.2.jar, slf4j-log4j12-1.5.2.jar)

http://logback.qos.ch/access.html says:

  • integrates with Servlet containers such as Jetty or Tomcat to provide rich and powerful HTTP-access log functionality
  • logback-access requires logback-core, but is independent of logback-classic as well as slf4j.
  • bundling at container level is required, not web app level.
