What is Jetty?

Jetty is a software developed by the Eclipse Foundation that provides a Java-based web server and servlet container. The software supports the deployment and management of Java web applications and provides functionality for HTTP, HTTP/2, WebSocket, and OSGi. Jetty is used to embed web server capabilities within Java applications and serves static and dynamic content through servlets, JSPs, and RESTful APIs. The software addresses the need for scalable and flexible web application hosting in both standalone server environments and embedded use cases, enabling developers to integrate web capabilities without relying on external servers. Jetty features modular architecture, asynchronous request handling, and secure communication support, which help streamline the development and deployment of web-based Java solutions.

Jetty Pricing

Users can download, use, and modify the software freely under the terms of the Eclipse Public License. There are no tiered pricing plans or subscription fees associated with the use of Jetty software provided by Eclipse.

“Jetty: A powerful functional and free tool for web servers.”

3.0
Feb 18, 2020
A complete free tool for web server programming. Its open source. it has easy to use interface, developing and debugging processes are smooth. However, your developers need to have a deep knowledge of web programming and protocols. With the goodness of open source, errors in the application can be annoying and increase the development time.
