Overview Apache Tomcat is the widely deployed open source implementation of the Jakarta Servlet, Jakarta Pages, Jakarta Expression Language and Jakarta WebSocket technologies. It provides a pure Java HTTP web server environment in which Java web applications run. This image delivers Apache Tomcat fully installed and configured as a system service, so a production ready servlet container is running within minutes of launch. The current release available is Apache Tomcat 11.
Application Stack Apache Tomcat installed under /opt/tomcat and run by a dedicated unprivileged service account. A headless OpenJDK Java runtime. A systemd service that starts Tomcat on boot and restarts it on failure. The Tomcat Manager and Host Manager web applications are enabled for application deployment and virtual host administration.
Secure First Boot On the first boot of your instance a one shot service generates a fresh Manager administrator password, unique to that instance, rewrites the Tomcat users configuration and writes the password to a root only file. No shared or default credentials ship in the image.
Ready To Use Tomcat listens on port 8080 and serves the landing page immediately. Deploy a WAR through the Manager application or by copying it into the webapps directory. The Manager and Host Manager applications keep their default localhost only access control, so reach them over an SSH tunnel as described in the user guide.

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.

Usage instructions
Connect via SSH on port 22 as the default login user for your operating system variant (the user guide lists it per variant). Tomcat serves on port 8080. Browse to http://<instance-public-ip>:8080/ for the landing page. The Manager and Host Manager apps are localhost only by design. Open an SSH tunnel with: ssh -L 8080:127.0.0.1:8080 <login-user>@<instance-public-ip>, then browse to http://127.0.0.1:8080/manager/html and sign in as the 'tomcatadmin' user. Retrieve the generated administrator password with: sudo cat /root/tomcat-credentials.txt.
