The following packaging formats are supported for tia Core applications:
...
WAR: Java Web Archive for deployment on an application web server
...
JAR: Java Archive with integrated web server (can run as a standalone application)
...
Native: For some applications there packages translated to native bytecode
...
tia® Content Server 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 deployable on a web-application server and JVM already available (war-file deployment), or
a container image file for cloud deployment (also called containerized 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 cloud-orchestration software like Kubernetes are expected in production environments.
Each instance uses an application context name, that can be freely chosen at time of deployment, and is the used in web URLs to access it.
