Difference between OA Framework and Application Express?!

Hi,
both are for the E-Business Suite and I read that both are in the Webbrowser (=HTML?!). So what are the differences and what is regulary used? thx

Read this,
This is straight reply by Sara Woodhull , on this stefan chan's blog, see the fifth reply:
http://blogs.oracle.com/schan/discuss/msgReader$1721
From the APEX web page at http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/index.html: "Oracle Application Express (Oracle APEX), formerly called HTML DB, is a rapid web application development tool for the Oracle database. Using only a web browser and limited programming experience, you can develop and deploy professional applications that are both fast and secure."
This would have all the same integration issues I mentioned for ADF: no flexfields, no personalization, profiles, and so on. If you are building a completely separate app that happens to use EBS tables, you could use APEX, but you'd have to handle a lot of stuff that OAF does for you.
BTW, keep in mind that most of the EBS apps handle validation in the UI layer (for Forms) or BC4J, or PL/SQL. You'd need to be sure you handle validation as well so you don't fill your tables with bad data.

  • Difference between component configuration and application configuration in webdynpro

    what is the difference between component configuration and application configuration in webdynpro?

    Hi Rohit,
    With the component configuration, you can control the behavior of each individual component within a Web Dynpro application or the user interface of individual views. For each component, several records of configuration data can be created.
    Using the application configuration, it is now possible to assign the configuration required in the current application to all the components used.
    In short : Component Config belongs to WDP Component and Appl'n Config. belongs to WDP Appl'n.
    Check this document for more information.

  • Difference between Business message and application message

    Hi B2B Gurus,
    Can you please explain the difference between Business message and application message?
    Regards,
    Praveen

    Hi Praveen,
    Business message status reports identify business message instance details for a document protocol. These details include the sending and receiving trading partners, the agreement name, the business action, the business message ID, the status, the exchange protocol and document protocol, and message details.
    Application Message Reports provide information related to the SOA Composite—the name, version, and so on, if a back-end composite application sent or received the message.

  • Difference between Airport Extreme and Airport Express

    What is the difference between Airport Extreme and Airport Express? My son is home from college and would like to use his Macbook for an online class. So I need a wireless router and I would also like to be able to play our iTunes over multiple speaker locations with my home stereo. Which one of these could accomplish this. Thanks in advance.

    If you can use just one device to both set up a WiFi network and connect to your stereo you have to use an Airport Express. If you have to use separate devices, for instance because your internet connection device and your stereo are not in the same location, you have to use an Express to stream to and you can use either an Express or an Extreme to set up the WiFi.
    By the way you have to use an Express for each stereo you would like to connect.

  • Difference between Information Field and Application Field

    Hi,
    Can anyone tell me the difference between information field and application field in ucm?
    Thanks

    Information fields are metadata fields that describe the content - by default they will appear on the interface and be searchable etc.
    Application fields are a special sort of meta field normally used behind the scenes to help with the logic of forms/templates. Application fields do not normally appear on the interface and are not searchable.
    More simply put if you just want to add content metadata just use Information Fields

  • Difference between Logic Pro and Logic Express?

    A buddy wants me to show him how to use Logic Express. I'm fairly up on Logic Pro, have used it for years. I'm wondering if I can get a trial version of Express to try out for an hour before embarrassing myself in front of him?
    Or if there is a huge amount of difference in the basic setup?

    There is very little difference, mostly in content (Jampacks, Waveburner, Mainstage..and a few of the high end plugins). Other than that they're functionally identical. same audio engine, you wouldn't know the difference just by looking at them.

  • What is the difference between PCI-x and PCI Express?

    I hear the new dual core Power Macs have PCI Express slots. How are these different than the PCI-X slots in my old Power Mac?
    jmf

    PCI Express is faster than PCI-X and not a bus architecture. Each slot has its own dedicated bandwidth to and from the system controller.
    PCI-X has a maximum clock speed of 133 MHz and a maximum throughput of just over 1 GBps.
    PCI Express cards and slots are defined by their bandwidth, or number of data lanes — typically one lane, four lanes, eight lanes, or 16 lanes. At 250 MBps per lane, a four-lane slot can transfer data at up to 1 GBps and an eight-lane slot, up to 2 GBps. The new PowerMac G5s have one 16 lane slot, two four-lane slots, and one eight-lane slot.

  • Differences Between Grid Control and Application Server Console

    Hi,
    I have come across a situation where a customer has an OC4J container and has deplyed several applications in this container. When they access Application Server Control Console thay can stop and start these applications individually.
    However, the customer cannot monitor the status/state of these applications from withing Grid Control. We can see that the OC4J container is either up or down and will be alerted for the change of status. However, if a single application within the container is down they will not be alerted.
    We are using GC 10.2.0.5, iAS 10.1.2.2. Is there a way around this, or dies the Application Server Console have a little extra functionalitly in it compared to Grid Control?
    Tim.

    Hi,
    On your grid control, create a new Notification rule and select "Web Application" from the target drop down and then select your application then in availability tab, select up and down for which you want to receive notification.
