Whether combination of CXF and Tomcat based WebServices are currently used in production for other projects ?And is this solution scalable & Reliable ? 2.

It shouldn't give you any issue since it is compatible with a wide variety of application server. We are using Tomcat7 and Tomcat6 to deploy our CXF web services and they are in production for quite some time now without any issue.

2 . Are there other options to deploy CXF based webServices other than Tomcat in production ?

There are multiple options to deploy cxf based web-services

From the docs

  • Lightweight containers: deploy services in Jetty, Tomcat or Spring-based containers
  • JBI integration: deploy as a service engine in a JBI container such as ServiceMix, OpenESB or Petals
  • Java EE integration: deploy services in Java EE application servers such as Apache Geronimo, JOnAS, Redhat JBoss, OC4J, Oracle WebLogic, and IBM WebSphere
  • Standalone Java client/server
