I have a developed two small Java applications – a vanilla Java app and a Java Web application (i.e. Spring MVC, Servlets, JSP, etc.).
The vanilla application consists of several threads which read data continuously at varying rates (from once a second to twice a minute) from several websites, process the data and write it to a database.
The Web Application reads the data from the database and presents it using JSPs, etc.

I’d now like to deploy the applications to a Linux machine and have them run 24 x 7.
If the applications crash I would like them to be restarted.
What’s the best way of doing this?

    Check out the ServletContextListener, this allows you to embed your java application inside your web application (by creating a background thread). Then you can have it all running inside the web container.

    Consider investigating and using a web container supported by the operating system vendor so all the scripts to bring it up and down (including in case of problems) is written and maintained by somebody else but you.

    E.g. Ubuntu has a Tomcat as a package
