Correct Answer: (ii) Running Java-based web applications

Explanation:

  • Apache Tomcat is an open-source servlet container and application server designed to execute Java Servlets and render JavaServer Pages (JSP).
  • It implements the official Java Servlet, JSP, Java EL, and WebSocket specifications from the Jakarta EE project.

Comparison:

  • Serving static HTML pages: Primarily handled by general web servers like Apache HTTP Server or Nginx.
  • Hosting FTP servers: Handled by FTP daemons (e.g., vsftpd, FileZilla Server).
  • Sending emails: Handled by SMTP Mail Transfer Agents (e.g., Postfix, Sendmail).
