White Paper | Migrating Forms to the Web: Making the Business Case

Oracle Forms to Web

There are many reasons organizations are currently migrating their Oracle Forms applications to the Web. This white paper will discuss those issues and review the problems that can occur during a conversion project. As well, it will discuss the options for migrating Oracle Forms, including moving to Forms 10g versus migrating to Java.

As Oracle continues to promote their 10g and 11g environments and to migrate their own applications to Java, many organizations are contemplating utilizing the new Web capabilities that are being provided. While past versions of Oracle Forms have enabled companies to access the Web, 10g is providing the most robust environment thus far. Some companies have business reasons to migrate immediately to the Java environment. This may be driven by the requirement to use JDBC connectivity between applications presently in use, or because there is a specific business reason within the company that requires an application to run in Java. As well, companies are trying to determine whether to stay with Oracle Forms as a development environment or whether they should migrate to Java.
