How to deploy Tomcat on a server?

Question

Java

Hello! I need to deploy Tomcat on a server on the internet. I have regular hosting beget.ru/index . Do I need to install the JDK separately there? If so, how? How to install Tomcat itself?
Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

The vast majority of hosting services imply the ability to deploy applications written in PHP, and without access to a web server. This is due to the fact that they themselves deploy a web server that serves many user accounts at the same time (ie, many sites belonging to different owners are deployed on the same web server). If you have a PHP application, then most likely you don't really need Tomcat, you can get by with standard PHP hosting.
But, since you wrote a question in the Java section, it seems that you need to deploy a Java application. There are very few hosting services for such applications, in most cases you have to rent a virtual (or even "iron") server, and deploy any infrastructure on it yourself. But alternatives can also be found. At the end of last year, Infobox announced a new cloud hosting with Java support, and they already have Tomcat pre-configured, added in a couple of clicks. I just had a Java project about to launch, and I decided to give it a try. The second month has gone: the flight is normal, less than 300 rubles have been spent (although there hasn’t been a big load yet). They have their own hub on Habré, find it among the companies, read it - they have been writing about this hosting only lately.

Answer 2

If you have the usual VIRTUAL HOSTING, then no, you cannot install anything yourself.

Answer 3

In short - no way. Just ask for a hoster, but because If you have a PHP-hoster, then it will not do anything like that.
Rent a virtual machine and install on it.
