While Tomcat is the default web server for Spring Boot, many developers prefer Jetty for its lightweight nature and high performance in specific cloud environments. In this guide, we'll walk through how to switch to Jetty and configure its options like a professional.
Step 1: Switching to Jetty
The first thing you need to do is exclude the default Tomcat starter and include the Jetty starter in your pom.xml file. This tells Spring Boot to use Jetty as the embedded servlet container.
Step 2: Configuring Server Options
Once Jetty is active, you can customize it using the application.properties file. You can control everything from the port number to advanced thread pool settings.
# Change the server port
server.port=8081
# Jetty specific configurations
server.jetty.threads.max=200
server.jetty.threads.min=10
server.jetty.threads.idle-timeout=60s
Why Choose Jetty?
Jetty is often praised for being more efficient with memory and having a smaller footprint than Tomcat. It is an excellent choice for microservices where resource optimization is key.
