Deployment descriptor

A deployment descriptor is an XML file that describes how a module or application should be deployed, by specifying configuration and container options. web.xml is a deployment descriptor file for Web applications. WebFacing applications use web.xml to store information such as the properties you set for your project; for example, the properties you choose for handling user IDs and passwords are stored in web.xml.

WebFacing applications can be deployed to the WebSphere® Application Server or the IBM® i integrated Web application server.
