Oracle Forms ... Kas toliau?

Oracle has no plan to desupport Oracle Forms, Oracle Reports, and Oracle
Designer products. Furthermore, new versions of Oracle Forms, Oracle
Reports and Oracle Designer will continue to be released and integrated with
the future versions of Oracle Application Server and Oracle Developer Suite.
Taiau:
Oracle recommends customers to web deploy their existing Forms and
Reports applications, consider the opportunities of new development in J2EE
using JDeveloper and ADF and integrate these applications together on the
application server, sharing common services and business logic.

Web 2.0.
Daug keli - k pasirinkt?
1. Nekreipti dmesio Web 2.0. ir pasilikti tik prie DBA, SQL ir
PL/SQL.
2. Jei naudojam Oracle Forms & Reports, tai toliau ramiai
tobulinti i ak.
3. Kak visikai kito (Ruby on Rails,.Net, PHP, Python...).
4. Kak paprasto ir artimo Oracle DB ir PL/SQL pvz.: APEX.
5. engti didel ingsn Fussion Middleware (Java, J2EE,
JDeveloper, ADF BC, ADF Faces...)
6. O gal bti pasirinkto Oracle produkto ekspertu: Oracle BI,
UCM, SOA, Business Rules, BPEL ...?

You should do it in a single SQL statement if at all possible.

If you cannot do it in a single SQL Statement, then do it in PL/SQL (as
little PL/SQL as possible!).
If you cannot do it in PL/SQL, try a Java Stored Procedure. The
number of times this is necessary is extremely rare today with Oracle9i
and above.
If you cannot do it in Java, do it in a C external procedure. This is most
frequently the approach when raw speed, or the use of a 3rd party API
written in C is needed.
If you cannot do it in a C external routine, you might want to seriously
think about why it is you need to do it...

maintain, include standards that the data must meet and then select the community that can see
and edit that data.
Oracle APEX Listener - A J2EE-based alternative to mod plsql providing improved performance,
direct file upload, file system-based page caching, and improved PDF printing.
Improved tabular forms, including support for validations, integration with collections, and additional
item types.
Support for AnyChart 4 and introducing Flash-based maps and Gantt charts.
Dynamic Actions - a new page rendering component that allows client-side events to affect the
displays properties of items (such as show, hide, enable, disable).
Declarative support for cascading select lists and other similar item types.
Extensible item framework, enabling developers to "plug in" their own custom item types.
Updateable Interactive Reports will extend the functionality of Interactive Reports to enable inline
editing.
New Authentication schemes.
Numerous functional and performance improvements.
