A Java Servlet is a server-side Java component that handles client requests and generates dynamic responses, typically used to build web applications and APIs within a servlet container like Apache Tomcat. Servlets extend the capabilities of servers by processing HTTP requests, managing sessions, and interacting with databases, forming the foundation for many Java web frameworks including Spring MVC. They were a core part of the Java EE web technology stack.
