==== TaskScheduler implementations

-scheduler implementation. The flexibility this provides is particularly relevant when

+arrangement is that an application's scheduling needs are decoupled from the deployment
+environment. This abstraction level is particularly relevant when deploying to an
+application server environment where threads should not be created directly by the
+application itself. For such scenarios, Spring provides a `TimerManagerTaskScheduler`
+delegating to a CommonJ TimerManager on WebLogic/WebSphere as well as a more recent
+`DefaultManagedTaskScheduler` delegating to a JSR-236 `ManagedScheduledExecutorService`
+in a Java EE 7+ environment, both typically configured with a JNDI lookup.
-A simpler alternative, the `ThreadPoolTaskScheduler`, can be used whenever external
-thread management is not a requirement. Internally, it delegates to a
-`ScheduledExecutorService` instance. `ThreadPoolTaskScheduler` actually implements
-Spring's `TaskExecutor` interface as well, so that a single instance can be used for
-asynchronous execution __as soon as possible__ as well as scheduled, and potentially
-recurring, executions.
+Whenever external thread management is not a requirement, a simpler alternative is
+a local `ScheduledExecutorService` setup within the application which can be adapted
+through Spring's `ConcurrentTaskScheduler`. As a convenience, Spring also provides a
+`ThreadPoolTaskScheduler` which internally delegates to a `ScheduledExecutorService`,
+providing common bean-style configuration along the lines of `ThreadPoolTaskExecutor`.
+These variants work perfectly fine for locally embedded thread pool setups in lenient
+application server environments as well, in particular on Tomcat and Jetty.
