[undertow-dev] War deployment to undertow

[Jason Greene]

Hello Dharmesh,

At this point in time Undertow standalone just supports programatic deployments. For full war deployment, we recommend using the WildFly project (wildfly.org), which bundles Undertow along with other Java EE frameworks like Hibernate. If disk footprint is a concern, you can actually remove subsystems and modules as you please. WildFly 9 will also ship with a servlet-only distribution (called web, not to be confused with the EE web profile). 

Hope this helps!
