You need an application server like Apache Tomcat, Jetty, or Glassfish to deploy your application. Each one has its advantages and disadvantages and also different configuration options.

Some application servers can be embedded in your application, or can be used standalone and just drop your .war in them.

You might want to consider finding a free web hosting service that supports Java EE. This would be much easier and safer than trying to set up a secure web server on your own machine.
