Can you just explain about multiple instance creation ?

I'd recommend reading the Servlet specification, whichever version (e.g.
2.5 or 3.0) applies to your selected version of Java EE. There is a
section in that spec entitled "Number of Instances".

It has actually been the case as far back as I can remember
(Servlet<=2.2) that servlet containers create *one* instance of a
declared servlet per JVM (would be more than one in a distributed
situation with more than one cluster node).

It is possible to configure servlets in such a way that the container
could create multiple instances. Don't do this.
