The Major Differences Between JBoss and Tomcat

Both JBoss and Tomcat are Java servlet application servers, but 

JBoss is a whole lot more. One way to think of it is that JBoss is a JEE stack that includes a servlet container and web server.

whereas 

Tomcat for the most part, is a servlet container and web server.

 

JBOSS Used:

The JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (or JBoss EAP) is a subscription-based/open-source Java EE-based application server runtime platform used for building, deploying, and hosting highly-transactional Java applications and services.

TOMCAT Used:

Oracle lists three such containers, and Tomcat isn't one of them. ... The accurate title for Tomcat would be either “web server” or “servlet container”. But even though Tomcat doesn't support some Java EE features out of the box, you can still use most of these features
