ServletExpress is a servlet engine plug-in that turns ordinary Web servers into Java-enabled Web servers. It's the state-of-the art, easy-to-use, and extensible way of deploying and managing Web applications across your enterprise. Servlets are Java-based applications written to the Java servlet API. Similar in function to applets running in a browser, servlets run on the server. Servlets allow for the creation of complex, high-performance, cross-platform Web applications in a secure server-side environment. ServletExpress is built on the licensed JavaServer Toolkit from JavaSoft and leverages the advanced features available in the Java Web Server. ServletExpress also includes the latest Java Servlet Development Kit APIs. As an extension of your Web server, ServletExpress expands your enterprise application portfolio.

Features
Here are some of the powerful features that ServletExpress offers:

• Simple installation.
• Better performance than other methods of extending server function. ServletExpress runs as an in-process plug-in with the Lotus Domino Go Webserver, Netscape on Windows NT, and Microsoft Internet Information Server.
• Full support for the latest session-tracking APIs, including session clustering (sharing of http sessions among several web servers).
• A graphical interface for servlet management. You can easily set options for loading local and remote servlets, set initialization parameters, specify servlet aliases, create servlet chains and filters, and log servlet messages.
• Web-based remote administration.
• Security features, including "servlet sandbox" and access control lists.
• Support for dynamic page content, which enables you to define JHTML pages containing embedded Java code, servlet tags, NCSA tags, and JavaBeans
• Advanced functions:
  • Security for remotely loaded servlets
  • Servlet chaining
  • MIME-based data filtering
  • Loading from Jar files
  • Dynamic re-loading of modified servlets
  • Recursive servlet and NCSA tag processing
  • Aliasing
• Comprehensive Web Programmer’s Guide and Webmaster’s Guide in both HTML and PDF formats.
