title: Can a war file be deployed on any server?
body: <p>Please pardon me if this question is silly. Suppose I develop a J2EE web application using Spring framework and a MS SQL-Server database, using a WebSphere application server. I later create a WAR file for this application. </p>
  
  <p>Can I deploy this WAR file on a Tomcat server without any change in code? Or my question is can this be hosted by web hosting which provides only Tomcat servers? If yes, is there any change in code required? </p>
  
  <p>If it cannot be deployed, can you please suggest me what to do, because I havent developed any application on a tomcat server. All the applications that I have developed have been on Websphere App Server using RAD.</p>
