We are trying to deploy java restful webservies, which we have implemented using jersey, in unlimitedgb.com webhost. Which provides java7 and tomcat7.
When we had a chat with the technical support team of unlimitedgb, they replied saying “Sorry we are not providing support for JERSEY in java private JVM”.
In our local system which consists of java7 and tomcat7, it works fine.
As per my knowledge as jersey provides api’s for restful webservice development, so there must not be any dependency on the server or server’s architecture or may be some other internals. So jersey must work with java 1.6 and above.
But when I got reply from the technical support team that they don’t support jersey I was really confused and started thinking if there is really any dependency of jersey on server or server architecture.
I feel the support team is not having any technical details about jersey.
I have not purchased the web host yet.
Please help me with the technical details so that I can go ahead in purchasing the web host.
I am not sure how much this would help but I used Jelastic and was able to deploy the war and host Jersey APIs without any support.
So, I am pretty confident with your own private VPS hosting, you should be able to get it working.
