So can I say Tomcat is Web Server but doesn't not support as full

It's a LOT more than just a web server, but it doesn't have full EJB
support. It may well be enough of an application server (in the more
general definition of application) for what you need.

Hi All,
I was reading an old article
(http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-01-2008/jw-01-tomcat6.html?page=1)
about
Tomcat to find out whether Tomcat can be used as application serve or
not. This article list that Tomcat 6.x support following features:
...
Where as lack for following:
·Distributed transactions
·EJBs and
·JMS
For that reason it can't be used as full application server. Is there
any feature I missed in either side.
And main question Is Tomcat application server? If no why?
The way you're using the term, no. Tomcat is a servlet engine, with
some very limited support for ejb's. Look at JBoss if you need full
EJB support. Keep in mind that servlets and standard java code can do
an awful lot, so you may not need full EJB support.
