[mahoori]

Hi all.
We have this platform and applications :
DB : Oracle 8i EE
AS : Oracle9iAS
OS : WIN2K SERVER
APPLICATIONS : FORM6 , REPORT6
LAN USER : 300 (client : win98,form runtime , report runtime)
We want produce new web application for external users .
Questions :
1)It is better we develope new application with form&report and use Oracle9iAS form&report service
OR
develope new application over J2EE (jsp,servlet) by Jdeveloper?
2)What is performance issue for two solution ?
(external users connect to our intranet via 56K analog modem and number of external users is fix(200)).
parameters :
a) we have 10 form&report developer and 5 java developer.
b) new application consists about %10 of existing applications.

I don't really expect somebody to try to answer such a vague question :-)

Java is not the right solution for everything.

In my opinion, Forms and Reports are easier and faster in development and maintainence than JSP.

Good luck.

Hello Julian.
This question is not a vague question.
This is question about compare of two web development method from oracle . Forms and Java(JSP&Servlet).
Hello dknight.
key parameter for my application is performance and form service use a large applet that reduce performance.
In test situation (without Jinitiator)form loading is very slow.

Best Regards.

I would try to develop a simple form with Developer and compare it to developing the same in JSP.

Then, consider that your business rules and data model may change, and try to project the maintenance time through its lifespan.

I don't have any data about performance.

Good luck.
