Hi,
The Oracle http server (OHS) is a collection of
three distinct feature sets.
1 - Web Server based on the proven Apache
technology. It also provides support for WebDAV, with Oracle9iDB as a
backing store. The Proxy Plug-In component allows Oracle9iAS to be used with
other web servers such as IIS and NES.
2 - Dynamic Web Applications- it provides an
ability to write web applications in several languages - PLSQL, Perl, Server
Side Include, C/C++ etc. It also provides some frameworks - DMS for monitoring,
and Java Object Cache for caching Java objects.
3 - Clustering frameworking for Oracle9ias - The
new infrastructure enables quick distributed deployment of J2EE applications. It
also monitors all processes in a cluster for failure and transparently updates
the routing table for optimal load balancing and minimum runtime impact on
requests.
Web servers - Apache, Zeus , ISS
Servlets Engines - Tom Cat, Apache
Jserver/OC4
Oracle9iAS Release 2 (v9.0.3) is 100% J2EE 1.3
Compatible(TM).
