JSP end up as servlets. Thus, they fall under the "web app" realm.
They are not distinct "pages" like HTML or PHP.

You do have to match your Apache config to your Tomcat config. Tomcat
is not "integrated" into Apache as PHP is...Tomcat is a distinct
environment, and can stand by itself without Apache. The communications
between Apache and Tomcat happen over the network via a
connector....they have their own process space, etc. It's not like CGI
or PHP where things are executed in process with Apache. Tomcat has no
knowledge whatsoever of Apache config...Tomcat only knows that requests
are coming in on a port.
