I honestly have no idea how much Tomcat is used anymore. The various places that I worked previously or have contacts with have killed it off by moving whatever used it to external cloud services versus JBOSS or anything else. That is just an anecdata but it is all I have on the subject.
Red Hat still has one of its offering based on Apache and Tomcat, named JBoss Web Server: https://www.redhat.com/en/technologies/jboss-middleware/web-server
and the latest update available (5.4, based on upstream Tomcat 9) in November 2020, had the bits for RH EL 6, 7 and 8. See also docs entry page here: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_jboss_web_server/5.4/
So it is non considered a dead technology, even for business use cases....
