Eclipse Jetty

Eclipse Jetty is an open-source web server built on Java that works with the most recent versions of the HTTP/2 protocol, WebSocket, and the Java Servlet API. The following characteristics of Jetty make it popular in many projects and products, both in development and production:

  • Open-source and commercially usable
  • Flexible and extensible
  • Asynchronous
  • Small footprint
  • Enterprise Scalable

Use these procedures to configure an Eclipse Jetty application server on the platform:

1. After logging in, select the “New Environment” icon located at the top of your PaaS account.

Create new environment

2. Choose Jetty as your application server by going to the Java tab in the topology wizard that appears.

Select Jetty application server

After modifying the additional parameters to suit your requirements (such as public IPs or vertical and horizontal scaling), click “Create“.

3. Select the “Open in Browser” button adjacent to the environment when it has been created.
