1) OAS only purpose would be if you plan to develop in PL/SQL. Since you are
not there are no benefits.
2) OAS has some security but not much dealing with EJB's only.  Looking into
using a LDAP for your users and acl.
3) This is not true, you can using OAS with databases version from around
7.3.x up.
4) OAS supports SSL up to level 2.  You can replace the web server with a
web server that supports higher level.  In most cases you will probably want
to replace the web server that comes with OAS with something that is faster,
which is most other web servers.

Subject:        Oracle Application server

Dear All,

  I have to select between the Weblogic Server and the Oracle Application
server. The project will use EJB's extensively.

1 How is Oracle Application server better than Weblogic server. I know that
Oracle Application server does not support Entity Beans. But that can be
taken care of by making the session beans persistent, i.e, by writing JDBC
in the session beans. Does this involve much complexity.

2 Also, does Oracle Application server provide some type of security realm,
so that users and acls can be defined. Or is there some other equally clean
way of handling security.

3 I also read somewhere that Oracle Server can only connect to Oracle8i db.
Is this true? Does this mean that my database has to be Oracle8i only.

4 Does Oracle Application server support SSL?? Which version? In case of
multiple severs, can the communication between beans residing on different
servers be made secure?

Any kind of information will be most helpful.
Thanx and regards,
Shelly
