tia Core requires a Java virtual machine (JVM) and a web application server (e.g. Apache Tomcat, Oracle Glassfish, Jetty, JBoss). It ships as
a war-file (war-file deployment) to be deployed on a web-application server and JVM already available (war-file deployment), or
a container image file for cloud-deployment that includes both the JVM and the web-application server.
Cloud-deployment requires as a minimum only a container runtime environment like Docker or Podman, while in production environments cloud-orchestration software like Kubernetes are expected in production environments.
