Embedding tomcat server into an application


What is an embedded server?

A web application runs on a web server, usually they are packaged in a WAR file and deployed in a server container like Tomcat, JBOSS or GlassFish. However embedded servers provide an interesting alternative. Instead of deploying your app in a server, the server is embedded inside your application The result is a standalone application packaged in a jar file and that could be executed from a command line.

To run an embedded tomcat server we just need following jars

tomcat-embed-core
tomcat-embed-logging-juli

The combined SS interface allows you to easily read and write all kinds of Excel files (XLS and XLSX) using Java. Additionally, there is a specialized SXSSF implementation which allows writing very large Excel (XLSX) files in a memory-optimized way. In maven we have two separate dependencies for each type. poi artifact id used for .xls files and poi-ooxml used for .xlsx files.
