What is the use of Mercury and Tomcat in Xampp control panel?

Tags:

Recently I installed Xampp server.

I know apache is used to run php server scripts and MySQL is used for database actions and FileZilla for transfering files to web to server.

But I don't understand what the Mercury and Tomcat Modules are for, can some explain?
