Yes. To deploy an application, upload your WAR file into your account's home (html) directory. The server explodes your WAR when the Tomcat service restarts automatically at 1:00 a.m., Arizona time (GMT - 7h). It is not possible to manually restart the Tomcat service.

Exploding the WAR file creates a directory in your hosting account using the WAR file's name. If you already have a directory by that name, you must remove it for the WAR file to explode correctly.
