I’m running multiple web-apps on multiple ports. And I’m wondering what’s the real difference between running multiple Hosts in the same Service, and running multiple Services with separate Hosts.

I know this can be used to share Connectors, but there any other reason on is better than the other ?

Config 1 : Multiple Hosts

        <Engine>
            //APP 1
            <Host>
                <Context .... />
            </Host>
            //APP 2
            <Host>
                <Context .... />
            </Host>
        </Engine>
    </Service>
</Server>

Config 2 : Multiple Services

<Server>
    //APP 1
    <Service>
        <Connector ... />
        <Connector ... />

        <Engine>
            <Host>
                <Context .... />
            </Host>
        </Engine>
    </Service>
    //APP 2
    <Service>
        <Connector ... />
        <Connector ... />

        <Engine>
            <Host>
                <Context .... />
            </Host>
        </Engine>
    </Service>
</Server>

    The only really good reason to have separate <Service>s is if you want to have a <Connector> that will (or will not) serve a specific subset of <Host>s or (as a consequence) <Context>s.
