Jetty is a 100% pure Java-based HTTP server and servlet container. Jetty is a free and open source project under the Apache 2.0 License. Jetty is used by several other popular projects including the JBoss and Geronimo application servers, and by the Google Web Toolkit plug-in for Eclipse.
Jetty deployment focuses on creating a simple, efficient, embeddable and pluggable web server. Jetty's small size makes it suitable for providing web services in an embedded Java application.
In January 2009, Webtide announced that Jetty would be moving to Eclipse Foundation. The Jetty project has been created, and the initial Jetty 7 code (with a refactored org.eclipse.jetty prefix) was checked into Jetty Subversion at Eclipse.
The Java support in Google App Engine is built on Jetty.[1]
