The Best Place to Build and Run Spring Applications

tc Server

SpringSource tc Server provides enterprise users with the lightweight server they want paired with the operational management, advanced diagnostics, and mission-critical support capabilities businesses need.

Designed as a drop-in replacement for Apache Tomcat, tc Server ensures a seamless migration path for existing custom-built and commercial software applications already certified for Tomcat.

  • Lightweight Application Server 
  • tc Server's lean, cost-effective runtime infrastructure speeds and streamlines both development and operations: IT gets all the Java services it needs without the considerable weight of the JEE features it doesn't. As a result, development and deployment proceed up to 50% faster at a fraction of the cost. tc Server users achieve further simplicity and savings by harmonizing all phases of the application lifecycle on one lightweight platform.
  • Optimized for Spring Applications
  • tc Server's native Spring Instrumentation provides fine-grained monitoring of deployed applications and unmatched visibility into the execution of Spring-powered applications. With built-in advanced management and reporting for Spring apps, tc Server supplies the top-down insight operators need to ensure Spring applications are running as required.
  • Ideally Suited for Virtual Environments
  • Thanks to its very small footprint and lean architecture, tc Server requires significantly less computing resources than conventional application servers. The result is much greater application server density within virtual or cloud-based environments. In addition, the availability of integrated VMware tools makes applications exceptionally easy to deploy and manage.
  • Higher Developer Productivity
  • With built-in Spring Insight, SpringSource tc Server gives Java developers a deep understanding of application performance characteristics so they can isolate transaction traces and quickly jump to the problematic code. Through early detection, analysis, and diagnosis of under-performing application areas, developers can deliver high-quality applications faster than ever before.
