Java Server-Side Programming

Java servlets are server-side Java programs that run within a web server to handle client requests and return customized dynamic responses based on each request. Servlets allow web servers to generate dynamic content tailored to users' inputs by retrieving data from databases or other applications to power features like search, online shopping, and transactions, as well as display time-sensitive data. Servlets operate using the HTTP request-response protocol where the client makes a request that the server then responds to.

Java Server-Side Programming

Java Servlets
Introduction
In the early days, web servers deliver static contents that are indifferent to users' requests. Java servlets are server-side programs (running inside a web server) that handle clients' requests and return a customized or dynamic response for each request. The dynamic response could be based on user's input (e.g., search, online shopping, online transaction) with data retrieved from databases or other applications, or time-sensitive data (such as news and stock prices). Java servlets typically run on the HTTP protocol. HTTP is an asymmetrical request-response protocol. The client sends a request message to the server, and the server returns a response message as illustrated.
