It's a simpler deployment story for us and one that fits better with our
other webapps. Red Hat does not provide a modern tomcat and we like having
dedicated tomcat instances for webapps which can have the port numbers
specified on the command line. I recognize there are alternative ways to
go, including preparing our own tomcat and thredds RPMs, but the pulling
the versioned artifacts from our repo and running something like "java -jar
webapp-runner thredds" works pretty well for us.
