This is the top-level entry point of the documentation for Apache Tomcat OACC. Apache Tomcat OACC is is a port of the Tomcat 5.5 cluster module to Tomcat 6.

Its purpose is to allow users of the Tomcat 5.5 cluster a two-step migration to Tomcat 6. We recommend all new cluster users to start with the default implementation of Tomcat 6 cluster automatically contained in any Tomcat 6 release. OACC is only an intermediary step and will not be actively developed any further.
