- Servlets execute within Web server space.

- Its security test is good and its having independent platform.

```
import java.io.*; import javax.servlet.*;import javax.servlet.http.*;
// Extend HttpServlet class
public class HelloWorld extends HttpServlet {   private String message;   public void init() throws ServletException {      // Do required initialization      message = "Mindstick";   }   public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)      throws ServletException, IOException {      // Set response content type      response.setContentType("text/html");      // Actual logic goes here.
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();      out.println("<h1>" + message + "</h1>");   }
public void destroy() {      // do nothing.   }}
