My question is (just making sure), that an app server like websphere or tomcat (web server) is much better choice to host your web service for scaling and other additional value adds that web/app server provides.. than using jvm's internal http server. I do understand/assume that the embedded httpserver is good for unit testing without having to setup a full blown server.. 

Just wanted to confirm that the inbuilt server cannot be a choice for a full on production application that is expected to serve around 1000 transactions per second..
