Migrating from Tomcat To Geronimo

Have you thought about moving your web applications to an application server, but were afraid to try? Geronimo may be the application server for you! Since Geronimo allows you to take on an application server a little at a time by building the stack that is right for you, migrating your Tomcat applications to Geronimo is a great first step.

This presentation describes migrating from Tomcat to Geronimo and covers the differences in the configuration files and the steps required to move your Tomcat based web applications to the Geronimo stack. A walk through of the configurations side-by-side will show you how easy it is to make the leap.
