University Session - Hands-On Oracle Application Express—From Zero to 60 in a Day!

Hands-On Oracle Application Express—From Zero to 60 in a Day!
Bradley Brown, TUSC—A Rolta Company Details
Application Development
PLEASE NOTE: This is a hands-on session. You'll need to bring your own laptop that has a wireless card that can connect to Brad's network.

In this session, you'll learn to use APEX from concept to delivery to support. We'll start with an existing "database" (i.e. an Excel spreadsheet) and build a real world application from the ground up. We'll also look at how APEX was used to solve specific business problems such as performing online property validations, keeping track of insured pilots, bug tracking, Agile development tracking, getting people to RSVP to monthly events without having to call them, and others. This session will discuss and demonstrate the functional requirements, how these applications were extended over time, the net results, and cost savings.

APEX is a declarative Web-based application development and deployment environment. It's a powerful and easy way to quickly develop a database-centric Web application. You can install APEX on your own machines or run it in a hosted environment on Oracle's apex.oracle.com site. All development (construction of pages) is done through the browser interface. You can use the SQL Workshop and the Data Workshop to run SQL and add data to your environment. This easy-to-use tool will impress you in no time at all! PL/SQL developers and DBAs love Application Express! This presentation gives the participants a good introduction and great hands on experience with the APEX development environment, as well as a good idea of the power that it contains to create quick, powerful Web application in a very short time.Brad will bring a server that has APEX installed along with a wireless network router that everyone will connect to for the class.

You'll need to bring your own laptop that has a wireless card that can connect to his network. You can share with someone else in the class if you would like, but the best experience is for you to do the typing. SQL and PL/SQL knowledge will be beneficial, but not absolutely necessary. This class is going to be limited in size, so sign up quickly!
