Hi Chandra,

I am using Oracle web forms(Part of Oracle 9iAS) in HP-Unix.

We also developing application in JSP environment.

With compare to JSP, Oracle web forms are slow, Because Oracle Web Forms load java applet in the client browser. The first time it's taking little time(5 seconds) but next time it's not taking that much time.

In Jsp you can use connection pooling but in Oracle web forms you can not use it. But you can use single-sign-on method and MTS.

The good news with Oracle web forms is, The development time and flexbility in coding. You can develop form on your PC and you can deploy on 9iAS web server and you start immediatly.

Developing screen Oracle forms is easy.

Oracle 9iAS web server is little-bit expencive but you can develop lot of different application by using that.

Another one good tool in Oracle 9iAS is Oracle Reports(6i or 9i).

If you comprimise little-bit with speed on Oracle web forms then
Oracle 9iAS is good choice.

If you need any help on this let me know.

Good Luck.

Sree.
