Can CAXL be deployed to Tomcat?

[matthew.sreeves]

The CAXL on-premise deployment guide describes how CAXL can be deployed to an Apache web server:

Is it possible to deploy it to a Tomcat server instead?

Thanks

You can deploy a CAXL application on any web server, including Tomcat. 

The instructions for Apache (and nginx) on the page you cited are instructions on how to solve the problem of cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) with a reverse proxy.  A reverse proxy tricks the system into thinking all requests are being made from the same origin.  For more information on CORS, here's the Wikipedia entry for CORS.

Ok - thanks.
