Tomcat is a servlet container which also serves web applications on http/https protocol. So in it's default avatar, any web app deployed on Tomcat runs on the defined port (default 8080
) and thus Tomcat is acting as a web server.
You dont need Apache to front it for static content. Just drop your webapp into TOMCAT_HOME/webapps and start the Tomcat server.
