Difference between Servlet container and Application server

Servlet Container - Tomcat 5/6/7, Jetty,etc

It supports a application which is based on Servlet Technology,  it also handles extension of the servlet technology such as JSP, JSTL,etc.

Possible to deploy most of the JavaEE Technologies on Servlet container, For that we have to add respective Technology APIs(either by maven repo/ant) on your application

Application Server: WebLogic, JBoss, GlassFish,etc

It supports a application which is based on JavaEE Technologies - EJB,Servlet,JSP,JF,JMS,JTA,etc.
