Comment on ★ Do You Know the History of These Oracle Database Performance Related Features? Take the Quiz by Eddie Awad

Good point. I do not think there was a public 10.0 release. There were public 10.1 (10gR1) and 10.2 (10gR2) releases. Yet, the MOS note I link to at the end of the quiz does differentiate among the three releases. Maybe 10.0 was released internally at Oracle.

For some of the questions, the options include 10g, 10gR1 and 10gR2, surely the more correct answer is the specific major release, rather than the more general 10g ?

Comment on ★ If You Have Oracle Database You Have Oracle Application Express; Use it or Lose it by Eddie Awad

I suggest you refer to the Oracle Application Express Installation Guide.

Basically, there are two main steps: Installing/configuring APEX in the database and installing/configuring an HTTP server.

For the HTTP server I suggest you go with the Oracle Application Express Listener.

Cheers!

Eddie, I have 11G database in out environment. How do I go about making sure Apex is a part of the installed components and if so, how do I proceed to install/use it?

Thanks, Eugene

Hi Manish, I'll try to put something together about the dashboard APEX application I built. It's not that complicated once you know how to build APEX applications in general. In the mean time, feel free to contact me directly with any questions you may have.

Eddie, great blog! Yeah, ApEx is one of those things that most plsql/sql developers are probably aware of, but haven't dipped their toes into because it's "Web" based.

I am intrigued about your dashboard idea to monitor interfaces etc. Would it be possible to share via a series of blogs how you went about building this (leaving out the proprietary stuff)?

This would be a great primer on those of us who get chills with the mere mention of "web".

Thanks!

Comment on ★ How to Connect to Oracle Database on a Guest VM from the Host by Eddie Awad

Hi Goutham, I do not currently have vmware installed on my machine, so I cannot give the steps with any degree of accuracy. Conceptually they should be the same as other VMs. Maybe the vmware forums could help. Cheers!
