5.7.1 Distributing requests by URL pattern

In the in-process HTTP server, of the HTTP requests for the in-process HTTP server, you can distribute and process requests for a specific URL to a specified Web container. As a result, when the Web application is moved to another J2EE server due to the reasons such as changes in the system configuration, the request to the old URL can be forwarded to the new URL.

Also, in the distribution of requests by redirecting to the in-process HTTP server, the requests for specific Web applications and specific servlets and JSPs in the Web application can be temporarily redirected to another Web server. In the in-process HTTP server, the requests are redirected regardless of whether the resources for the requested servlets and JSPs actually exist. The redirection is given a higher priority than the servlets and JSPs. Therefore, when the requests to the servlets and JSPs match with the redirected URL, the servlets and JSPs are not executed.
