One significant benefit of running Tomcat and JBoss separately is that you can easily relocate them to separate boxes if necessary or desired.  With that in mind, I architected our company's environment to run separately.  After our code was in production, our security guy approached me and asked me what it would take to get the JBoss code off of the web server.  I told him about 60 seconds - enough time for me to change the JNDI settings.

Subject: [JBoss-user] better to run Tomcat and JBOSS seperately?

Hi All,
 
There�s just one more question that I have.
 
What are the advantages and disadvantages of running Tomcat "embeded" in JBOSS.  I�ve read in a number of threads that in terms of scalability it would be better to have them running seperately.  Is this true?
 
If that is the case, then my virtual host question has just about been answered because I had no problems with virtual hosting when running Tomcat as a standalone.
 
bye Michael Delamere
