Oracle HTML DB

I don’t read a lot about Oracle HTML DB in trade magazines. But the ones that are using it think it’s the next best thing since

sliced bread and are happily singing its praises. What is it? “Oracle..

This HTML DB is a web-based application development and deployment tool integrated with Oracle Database 10g. Oracle HTML DB enables anyone with only a web browser and limited programming experience to quickly create secure and scalable web applications that can be instantly deployed to tens, hundreds, or thousands of users. Oracle HTML DB is a standard feature of Oracle Database 10g, available in Standard One, Standard and Enterprise Editions at no additional charge.” Essentially it is a web based application development tool geared to those users who are creating the dozens of spreadsheet and small desktop database applications that one finds among end using departments. It is a fabulous tool that has enabled  to get rid of dozens of problematic spreadsheets and MS Access databases that have grown too large and complicated for the desktop. I haven’t had an opportunity to try it out myself yet, but you people can try.
