Gosh. I remember working with this back in 2019 and earlier. Our legacy products ran on it. I remember a new service we made (before Spring Boot really took off) used TomCat. It was so much easier to mess with. I asked why we don’t use that for our main product. Imagine my surprise when they said we actually used to. I’m sure they had their reasons, I was a younger dev at the time and didn’t have insight into why they changed it. But still. Everything is so simple now. Java to run your jar. Your jar has your server built in. Done. And that’s not even including containerization. I do miss Jenkins though. GitHub Actions seems to be the new hotness. Maybe I just don’t have the muscle memory yet, but it can be annoying.
