uPortal will run in conjunction with any application server that complies with the Java Servlet 2.2 and Java Server Pages 1.1 specifications. There are members of JA-SIG currently operating uPortal instances with BEA’s WebLogic, IBM’s Websphere, and Caucho’s Resin, among others. Please don’t think that uPortal is somehow dependent upon Tomcat, the open-source JSP and servlet container from the Apache Jakarta project that ships with the existing “monterey” distribution and soon-to-be-released “plymouth” distribution. You can use any JSP 1.1/Servlet 2.2-compliant container or application server, and if you want commercial quality tech support, formal training or documentation, then a commercial application server is something to consider.
