Architecture & Components: Oracle Application Server 10g Essentials

Mehr zum Buch

The new Oracle Application Server boasts extensive functionality, including Java runtime and development tools, portal development tools, business intelligence, and single sign-on identity management. Its complexity can be daunting, as many users only understand a fraction of its capabilities. This guide serves as an essential introduction for users at any level, offering a focused technical overview that benefits anyone involved with web servers, Java development, or Oracle's tools like Forms and Reports. Structured into three concise sections, the book begins with the history, architecture, management, standards, and third-party support for languages such as Java and Perl. The second section delves into Oracle's web server, Java web caching containers, and security features. The final section addresses HTML and Java development, as well as Oracle development practices. While primarily focused on Oracle Application Server 10g, it also references earlier versions when relevant. More accessible than a comprehensive reference and more detailed than a basic primer, this guide lays the groundwork for effectively utilizing Oracle Application Server. It emphasizes key issues and components, prioritizing principles over syntax, making it the ideal introductory resource for Oracle application developers and administrators.
