Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Silly question perhaps -- iAS vs. IIS
I don't know if this is a silly question, but I am playing devil's advocate because one of the managers here made a comment re. this.
Why would someone bother using the Oracle Web Server anyway?
We have two boxes that use OWS 3.0.1.1 (we will upgrade very soon to OAS 4.0, Oracle doesn't support 3.0.1.1 anymore), with JInitiator and Forms / Reports server.
Another box is using the Oracle Application Web Toolkit to access my database, generating thousands of separate sessions per day, each about one second in length.
I don't know about the other Web server options out there, is there a way to do the same thing with IIS and OLE DB, for example? What would the impact be on Web server performance, the network, and the back end database?
Just wondering, please enlighten me.
I asked the ODTUG listserv but there was resounding silence.
TIA
