Apache Tomcat is one of most popular & widely used Application Servers, and Apache Axis2 is one of most widely used Java Web services servers. Apache Synapse is one of the popular, high performant ESBs widely used in the industry.
In this session, we will look at how we combine these great projects from the ASF into building a scalable, elastic,multi-tenanted Application Server, which allows you to deploy cloud-native webapps on the Cloud, and benefit from all the advantages that Cloud Computing brings in. We will also see how easy it is to deploy any standard webapp on the Cloud, and seamlessly integrate with the authentication, authorization & management infrastructure provided by the underlying Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS).

Web services is the most popular technology for implementing an SOA. SOA & Cloud computing are a natural fit. Apache Axis2 is the most widely used Java Web services server in the industry. Deploying Web services on the Cloud would give all the benefits provided by Cloud Computing. However, deploying Web service applications on the Cloud requires that sharing of resources & infrastructure has to be optimally done without compromising security.
In this session, we will look at an architecture which will allow you to deploy Web services within a single Axis2 cluster in a multi-tenant fashion. We will also look at how to adopt this architecture for deploying Axis2 Web services as SaaS. We will demonstrate this in practice using the WSO2 Stratos Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS)
