To cover the depth and breadth of Java applications, App Service supports the Java Standard Edition (SE), Tomcat, and JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) technology stacks. At the base of these stacks, App Service supports all recent Java long-term support (LTS) versions. There are several key scenarios for which you should consider adopting App Service for your Java applications. ### Java SE on App Service Java SE on App Service allows you to effortlessly deploy your applications to fully managed Java Virtual Machine (JVM) instances. You should consider this stack if you have Spring Boot and Quarkus web applications. However, you can use this stack for any application that can be started directly from a JVM and includes an embedded HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) server. You can deploy your Java archive (JAR) file and let App Service do the rest. ### Tomcat on App Service This App Service stack supports all recent major and minor versions of Tomcat. You should consider migrating on-premises Tomcat web applications to App Service using this stack. Such applications often use technologies such as the Spring Framework and Hibernate. The stack is also suitable for applications currently running on servers such as WebLogic or WebSphere that can be easily migrated to Tomcat. You can deploy your web application archive (WAR) file and let App Service do the rest. ### JBoss EAP on App Service > [!NOTE] > JBoss EAP on App Service now supports "Bring Your Own License" (BYOL) billing, this allows customers with existing Red Hat subscriptions to apply those licenses directly to their JBoss EAP deployments on Azure App Service. [Learn more](https://aka.ms/byol-eap-jboss). You can effortlessly run any JBoss EAP version currently supported by Red Hat on this App Service stack. JBoss EAP is fully compatible with the Java Enterprise Edition (EE) and Jakarta EE standards. The stack can optionally support any application that requires JBoss EAP clustering. You should consider migrating applications currently running on-premises on JBoss EAP and WildFly to this stack. The stack is also suitable for applications running on servers such as WebLogic or WebSphere that can be easily migrated to JBoss EAP. You can deploy your web application archive (WAR) or enterprise archive (EAR) file and let App Service do the rest.
