Jetty<\/strong>\u00a0is a 100% pure Java-based\u00a0HTTP server<\/strong>\u00a0and servlet container (application server). Jetty is a free and open source project under the Apache 2.0 License. Jetty is used by several other popular projects including the Geronimo application server and by the Google Web Toolkit plug-in for Eclipse.
\nJetty deployment<\/strong>\u00a0focuses on creating a simple, efficient,\u00a0embeddable<\/strong>\u00a0and pluggable web server. Jetty’s small size makes it suitable for providing web services in an embedded Java application.<\/p>\n

In\u00a0January 2009<\/strong>, Webtide announced that Jetty would be moving to\u00a0Eclipse Foundation<\/strong>. The Jetty project has been created, and the initial Jetty 7 code (with a refactored org.eclipse.jetty package) was checked into Jetty Subversion at Eclipse.
\nThe Java support in Google App Engine is built on Jetty.<\/p>\n

Jetty provides an HTTP server, HTTP client, and\u00a0javax.servlet<\/a>\u00a0container. These components are open source and available for commercial use and distribution.
\nJetty is used in a wide variety of projects and products. Jetty can be embedded in devices, tools, frameworks, application servers, and clusters. See the\u00a0Jetty Powered<\/a>\u00a0page for more uses of Jetty.<\/p>\n

The core Jetty project is hosted by the\u00a0Eclipse Foundation<\/a>. The codehaus provides Jetty accessories , integrations, and extensions, as well as hosting older versions of Jetty. See the\u00a0About<\/a>\u00a0page for information about the project structure.<\/p>\n
