Yes. web2py works with Oracle. Marcel Leuthi from Switzerland ported it. 0) Install python 2.5
1) you need to install this driver http://cx-oracle.sourceforge.net/ 2) download web2py source 3) In your apps, in the model(s) connect to oracle using db=SQLDB('oracle://[URI]') where URI the URI of your oracle database, probably something like: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The URI is the same for SQLAlchemy or Django. They are all based on Oraclecx driver. web2py has better Oracle integration than those other systems. For example db().select(db.table.ALL,limitby=(10,30)) does pagination (skips 10 records and returns the next 20). Oracle does not have an API for pagination but all systems find a way around. Django does it with two nested selects. web2py does it with 3 nested selects, which is the fastest way, as explained in the official Oracle documentation.
