NetBeans is an integrated development environment (IDE) for developing primarily with Java,
but also with other languages, in particular PHP, C/C++, and HTML5.[3] It is also an application
platform framework for Java desktop applications and others.
The NetBeans IDE is written in Java and can run on Windows, OS X, Linux, Solaris and other
platforms supporting a compatible JVM.
The NetBeans Platform allows applications to be developed from a set of modular software
components called modules. Applications based on the NetBeans Platform (including the
NetBeans IDE itself) can be extended by third party developers.[4]
The NetBeans Team actively support the product and seek feature suggestions from the wider
community. Every release is preceded by a time for Community testing and feedback
The platform offers reusable services common to desktop applications, allowing developers to
focus on the logic specific to their application. Among the features of the platform are:

Apache Tomcat
Apache Tomcat (or simply Tomcat, formerly also Jakarta Tomcat) is an open source web
server and servlet container developed by the Apache Software Foundation (ASF). Tomcat
implements several Java EE specifications including Java Servlet, JavaServer
Pages (JSP), Java EL, and WebSocket, and provides a "pure Java" HTTP web
server environment for Java code to run in.
Apache is developed and maintained by an open community of developers under the auspices of
the Apache Software Foundation, released under theApache License 2.0 license, and is opensource software.
Tomcat 7.x implements the Servlet 3.0 and JSP 2.2 specifications.[7] It requires Java version 1.6,
although previous versions have run on Java 1.1 through 1.5. Versions 5 through 6 saw
improvements ingarbage collection, JSP parsing, performance and scalability. Native wrappers,
known as "Tomcat Native", are available for Microsoft Windows and Unix for platform integration.
Tomcat 4.x was released with Catalina (a servlet container), Coyote (an HTTP connector) and
Jasper (a JSP engine).
Wampserver
The acronym WAMP refers to a set of free (open source)applications, combined with Microsoft Windows, which
are commonly used in Web server environments. The WAMP stack provides developers with the four key
elements of a Web server: an operating system, database, Web server and Web scripting software. The
combined usage of these programs is called a server stack. In this stack, Microsoft Windows is the operating
system (OS),Apache is the Web server, MySQL handles the database components, while PHP, Python,
or PERL represents the dynamic scripting languages.
