Pro Oracle Application Express 4

Application Express, or APEX as it is called, is one of the most innovative products to come out of Oracle in years. APEX is an application development framework for developing database-backed applications. It s easy enough to get started in that power users can quit storing data in random spreadsheets and instead centralize their data in the powerful, Oracle Database. Developers using APEX can go further by leveraging the full power and flexibility of Oracle s database engine. APEX s power, ease-of-use, and integration with the database have led to a phenomenal take-up of the product. Many people use APEX, and there is strong demand for advanced information on using it.
Pro Oracle APEX assumes that readers already know the rudiments of using APEX. The book tackles the harder problem of showing readers how to take full advantage of the APEX framework. As with any framework, there are right and wrong ways to do things, and there are "blind-alleys" that are best avoided. Pro Oracle APEX gives readers what they need to know in order to build serious, enterprise-level applications useable by hundreds, even thousands of people. Cowritten by an original creator of APEX and a key APEX user with deep connections into Oracle s APEX development team, Pro Oracle APEX will be the book that sets the standard in its topic area.
