News On Next Version Of
E-Business Suite
"Oracle
Corp. is redesigning its
E-Business Suite of
enterprise applications to
certify them for use with
the company's forthcoming
Oracle 10g database and
application server, which
will be optimized for grid
computing. In the process,
sources said, Oracle will
enable its E-Business
applications for the first
time to operate on
application servers from
third parties.
As part
of the redesign, Oracle will
replace its proprietary
applets, called forms, with
Java servlets. Once the
forms are changed, the
applications will
potentially be able to run
on any Java application
server, freeing them from
dependence on Oracle
Application Server."
