Apache Tomcat
The Apache Tomcat® software is an open source implementation
of the
Jakarta Servlet,
Jakarta Pages,
Jakarta Expression Language,
Jakarta WebSocket,
Jakarta Annotations and
Jakarta Authentication
specifications. These specifications are part of the
Jakarta EE platform.
The Jakarta EE platform is the evolution of the Java EE platform. Tomcat 10
and later implement specifications developed as part of Jakarta EE. Tomcat 9 and
earlier implement specifications developed as part of Java EE.
The Apache Tomcat software is developed in an open and participatory
environment and released under the
Apache License version 2. The
Apache Tomcat project is intended to be a collaboration of the best-of-breed
developers from around the world. We invite you to participate in this open
development project. To learn more about getting involved,

Apache Tomcat software powers numerous large-scale, mission-critical web
applications across a diverse range of industries and organizations. Some of
these users and their stories are listed on the
PoweredBy
wiki page.

2024-09-17 Tomcat 10.1.30 Released
The Apache Tomcat Project is proud to announce the release of version 10.1.30
of Apache Tomcat. This release implements specifications that are part of the
Jakarta EE 10 platform.
Applications that run on Tomcat 9 and earlier will not run on Tomcat 10
without changes. Java EE based applications designed for Tomcat 9 and earlier
may be placed in the $CATALINA_BASE/webapps-javaee
directory and
Tomcat will automatically convert them to Jakarta EE and copy them to the
webapps directory. This conversion is performed using the
Apache Tomcat
migration tool for Jakarta EE tool which is also available as a separate
download for off-line use.
The notable changes in this release are:
- Fix the regression in HTTP/2 support introduced in 10.1.29.
Full details of these changes, and all the other changes, are available in the
Tomcat 10.1
changelog.

2024-09-16 Tomcat 11.0.0-M26 Released
The Apache Tomcat Project is proud to announce the release of version 11.0.0-M26
(beta) of Apache Tomcat. This release is a milestone release and is targeted at
Jakarta EE 11.
Users of Tomcat 10 onwards should be aware that, as a result of the move from
Java EE to Jakarta EE as part of the transfer of Java EE to the Eclipse
Foundation, the primary package for all implemented APIs has changed from
javax.*
to jakarta.*
. This will almost certainly
require code changes to enable applications to migrate from Tomcat 9 and earlier
to Tomcat 10 and later. A
migration
tool is available to aid this process.
The notable changes in this release are:
- Fix the regression in HTTP/2 support introduced in 11.0.0-M25
Full details of these changes, and all the other changes, are available in the
Tomcat 11
(beta) changelog.
