How can I get a tomcat docker image based on rhel7?

The one listed on https://hub.docker.com/_/tomcat is based on debian. Where can I get a rhel based image? Or is there a way I can create it by myself.

I am currently working on rhel 7.6 and have docker installed on my machine?

You have to build it yourself because RHEL is proprietary and therefore underrepresented in docker hub. You could go for a centos version though, which is almost identical.

Note: RHEL would be considered an extremely unusual choice for a container OS. Are you sure you're doing the right thing? If this is a rule given to you by your employer then it's wrong and you should go fix that instead -- it'll be easier than trying to build rhel containers.

You could take a look at this as a starting point for ideas on how to build it yourself: https://github.com/sclorg/rhscl-dockerfiles/blob/master/centos7.python27/Dockerfile.rhel7
