Whether you’re using the JBoss Enterprise Application Platform, JBoss AS, or the upcoming Wildfly releases, you can use Server Tools to help deploy, run, debug and introspect your favorite application server. Server Tools provides incremental deployment to both local and remote systems, as well as easy access to starting, stopping, restarting, and debugging your server or the deployed modules. All of this is available from within the Eclipse IDE, so you spend less time switching to terminals, and more time writing code.
All your configured servers are listed in the server view. You can easily see the running state of your server, what deployments have been added, and which of those deployments may be currently be out-of-sync with the server. It also provides quick access to the most common actions you’ll want to take. Launching your server, shutting it down, or ensuring your latest workspace changes have been deployed, are all just one click away.
The full range of servers are supported, allowing you to maintain old applications, or develop on current or future releases to help you explore new ways of improving your application!

The deployment only server allows you to deploy eclipse projects to any directory on any system, local or remote. This is , independent of specific server type. This allows you to benefit from the incremental deployment for any server that supports picking up updates from the file system.
