Oracle Blog's : Development that's fast, simple, and powerful!

Cloud based application development is growing at an incredible pace due to the rise of tethered database cloud services, coupled with modern, intuitive, and powerful development tools.

In years past, developers were plagued by some concrete challenges -

Cumbersome user interface and user experience
Lack of scalability
Lack of performance from un-optimized databases
New frameworks and platforms
Security

Application development is inherently difficult, as the developer must deliver a final product that achieves its desired goal, but also must possess creative elements that are pleasing, brand-building and technically modern. With developers in mind, Oracle offers Application Express, a solution that has more than ten years of real-world usage and community activity. Oracle APEX enables you to design, develop and deploy beautiful, responsive, database-driven applications using only your web browser.

So what is Application Express? Oracle Application Express is the native low code framework of the Oracle Database. Using Application Express, you can easily create modern, responsive, scalable web applications with minimal effort. With no additional coding, Web apps created with APEX look great on the desktop, tablet or smartphone. Application Express is a supported feature of the Oracle Database and is included, at no additional cost, with every Oracle Database, both on-premises and in the cloud. There are no additional licensing costs based on the number of developers, applications or end-users. Application Express is also included with every Oracle Database Cloud Service, from the low-priced Oracle Database Exadata Express Cloud Service all the way up to the Oracle Database Exadata Cloud Service. With Application Express, you can focus on the problem at hand. Much of the development process is managed for you: security, authentication, database interactions, input validation, session state management and many other dependencies work out of the box. All the tools you need are available in a single, extensible platform, which runs as a part of the Oracle Database.
