history

Project history and usage

Apache Tomcat 10 is the Jakarta EE-era Tomcat line. In package-manager terms, `tomcat@10` is valuable because it pins users to the Tomcat 10 family rather than the newest major Tomcat, preserving the Servlet/Jakarta API level expected by applications.

Project history

Tomcat 10.0.x built on Tomcat 9.0.x and implemented the Jakarta EE 9 generation of APIs: Servlet 5.0, JSP/Jakarta Pages 3.0, EL 4.0, WebSocket 2.0, and Authentication 2.0. Apache's migration guide calls out the central break from Tomcat 9: specification packages changed from `javax.*` to `jakarta.*`, requiring recompilation or migration of applications.

Tomcat 10.1.x then built on Tomcat 10.0.x and implements the Jakarta EE 10 generation: Servlet 6.0, Pages 3.1, EL 5.0, WebSocket 2.1, and Authentication 3.0. Apache's version matrix lists Tomcat 10.1.x as a current supported line and Tomcat 10.0.x as superseded, with 10.0.27 as the final 10.0 release.

Adoption history

Tomcat 10 adoption is tied to the Java EE to Jakarta EE transition. Apache's homepage warns that applications running on Tomcat 9 and earlier do not run on Tomcat 10 without changes, and documents an automatic conversion path through `$CATALINA_BASE/webapps-javaee` plus the Apache Tomcat migration tool for Jakarta EE.

The input package metadata shows why package managers keep an explicit Tomcat 10 identity: Homebrew uses `tomcat@10`, Arch uses `tomcat10`, Scoop has `versions/tomcat10`, and Debian/Ubuntu expose Tomcat 10 embedding packages. That split lets users install a supported Jakarta EE 10-era container without accidentally jumping to a later major line.

How it is used

Users install Tomcat 10 to run Jakarta Servlet/Jakarta Pages applications, test migrations from Tomcat 9, and host web apps that have already moved to `jakarta.*` APIs. The same operational model remains: `catalina` starts and manages the server, while `$CATALINA_BASE/conf/server.xml`, `catalina.properties`, and `tomcat-users.xml` hold core configuration and local user credentials.

Why package nerds care

For package nerds, `tomcat@10` is a versioned formula that encodes a major compatibility boundary. It is not merely an older Tomcat: it represents the Jakarta namespace migration, Java runtime floor changes, branch tracking for 10.1.x, and the need to keep application-server packages installable by API generation.

Timeline

Tomcat 10.0.x: Apache documents the Jakarta namespace migration from `javax.*` to `jakarta.*`.
2022: Tomcat 10.0.x reached end of life on 2022-10-31.
2026: Apache lists Tomcat 10.1.56 as the latest supported Tomcat 10.1.x release and documents Java 11 or later for 10.1.x.

Related projects

The official source page lists the same `tomcat.git` repository for Tomcat 10.1.x development, and related projects include the Apache Tomcat migration tool for Jakarta EE, Tomcat Native, Tomcat Connectors, Taglibs, and the Tomcat Maven Plugin.
