Overview
Apache Tomcat (Hardened) on Amazon Linux 2023 is a production-ready, security-hardened image of the Apache Tomcat servlet container running on Amazon Corretto 21, maintained and supported by Derek Coleman & Associates Incorporated.
This is repackaged open-source software. Apache Tomcat is developed by the Apache Software Foundation and is distributed under the Apache License 2.0. Apache and Apache Tomcat are trademarks of the Apache Software Foundation; this listing is not endorsed by or affiliated with the ASF. This product bundles unmodified upstream Apache Tomcat on a hardened Amazon Linux 2023 base; the charges associated with this listing are for image hardening, continuous patching, vulnerability scanning, and business-day support - not for the underlying open-source software, which remains free.
Hardening baseline: minimal package footprint, SSH key-only access (password authentication disabled), IMDSv2 enforced, and no default credentials anywhere - the manager, host-manager, docs, and examples webapps are removed, no Tomcat users are enabled, and the server version banner is suppressed. Images are rebuilt, scanned for HIGH and CRITICAL vulnerabilities, and republished on a regular cadence so that new launches start current. Deploy applications under /opt/tomcat/webapps and manage the service with systemd: sudo systemctl restart tomcat.
Highlights
- Security-hardened at build time: minimal packages, key-only SSH, IMDSv2-only, manager/example apps removed, no enabled Tomcat users, version banner suppressed.
- Continuously patched: rebuilt, vulnerability-scanned, and republished on a regular cadence.
- Production-ready: systemd-managed Tomcat 10.1 on Amazon Corretto 21; deploy WARs under /opt/tomcat/webapps.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
