A Primer on Real Application Security in Oracle Application Express
Dimitri Gielis, Director, Apex R&D
Sunday, Sep 18, 8:00 a.m. – 8:45 a.m. | Moscone South—304
When it comes to securing your data, it is best to do that on the lowest level possible, meaning in Oracle Database. Before, Oracle Virtual Private Database was one of the solutions for this. This session discusses the Real Application Security feature in Oracle Database 12c—the successor to Oracle Virtual Private Database—and how to integrate that in Oracle Application Express.
Strike That! Securing Data with Oracle Advanced Security and Oracle Application Express
Scott Spendolini, Co-Founder, Sumner Technologies
Sunday, Sep 18, 9:15 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. | Moscone South—304
There has not been a time in history when data security and privacy have been more prominent and important than today. With data breaches occurring almost weekly and high-profile news stories dominating the mainstream media, organizations are scrambling to make sure that their infrastructures, both on premises and in the cloud, are as secure as they can be. Fortunately, this task is not as daunting as it seems—when you use the proper tools. This session highlights how using features of the Oracle Advanced Security option, particularly redaction and encryption, can help developers build secure Oracle Application Expression applications.

Sunday, Sep 18, 11:45 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. | Moscone South—304
Creating beautiful applications with Oracle Application Express is easy. But there is more to Oracle Application Express than meets the eye. There is an Oracle Database underneath it all. Building a robust database application is vital for data integrity and performance. In this session, you will learn how to set up your database application and hear suggestions for how to improve your current applications.
Open Source and Oracle Application Express: Join the Movement
Martin D’Souza, Consultant / Contractor, Insum
Sunday, Sep 18, 1:00 p.m. – 1:45 p.m. | Moscone South—104
Most people do not associate open source with Oracle. That has changed because it is becoming more common for Oracle developers to publish their projects on open source platforms such as GitHub. This session focuses on how you can leverage open source projects as part of your Oracle (and Oracle Application Express) development practices and integrate them in your applications. It highlights some popular open source projects that will help reduce your development costs and improve consistency throughout your applications. I’m already sure this will be one of my favorite Oracle Open World 2016 APEX Sessions.
Mastering the Oracle Application Express Universal Theme

Sunday, Sep 18, 1:00 p.m. – 1:45 p.m. | Moscone South—304
One of the most important aspects of Oracle Application Express 5 is its universal theme feature. This theme enables every database developer to create great-looking applications without knowing any JavaScript, HTML, or CSS. But how do you make changes to comply to your company branding in such a way that you do not break anything else? And how do you add new templates and template options? In this session, you will learn how the universal theme feature works, what the components are, and what you should and should not do when you make your changes.

Interfacing Raspberry Pi with Oracle Application Express
Christoph Ruepprich, Programmer / Developer, Accenture Enkitec
Sunday, Sep 18, 2:15 p.m. – 3:00 p.m. | Moscone South—304
This presentation will demonstrate how we control hardware, such as buttons and lights, attached to a Raspberry Pi from an APEX application. With the use of Node.js and some publicly available libraries, we can gain access to the Raspberry Pi’s input/output port. We can poll these ports and display their statuses in APEX, and further switch lights on and off by clicking buttons in APEX. We will also have some audience participation, we participants can connect to our application and compete in a game.
Designing Optimal Oracle Application Express Applications for the Cloud
Patrick Cimolini, Senior APEX Consultant, Insum Solutions
Sunday, Sep 18, 3:30 p.m. – 4:15 p.m. | Moscone South—304
Oracle Application Express is a mature, cloud-ready web development tool. This session explores design decisions that must be considered before building large, cloud-based Oracle Application Express applications. Cloud applications are often designed from within a narrow developer perspective. Developer designs are often suboptimal when they are exposed to a wider enterprise perspective. Based on over 10 years of Oracle Application Express development experience, the presenter highlights key design decisions that must be optimized to satisfy the interrelated and conflicting goals of all the stakeholders who design, build, test, maintain, use, and pay for large Oracle Application Express cloud applications. Careful, and sometimes painful, optimization through design leads to success.
The Five Ways of Building Oracle Applications

Sunday, Sep 18, 3:30 p.m. – 4:15 p.m. | Moscone South—306
This session examines all the most important development tools and technologies available from Oracle today, discussing the strong and weak points of Oracle Forms (the classical Oracle development tool, PL/SQL logic), Oracle Application Development Framework (declarative development with Oracle JDeveloper, Java business logic), Oracle Application Express (declarative development in web browser, PL/SQL business logic), JavaScript Extension Framework (brand-new JavaScript-based framework for building the user interface layer), and Oracle Mobile Application Framework (specialized Oracle Application Development Framework-like tool for mobile applications, generating native iOS, Android, and Windows applications). The presentation also includes recommendations for how to choose the right tool.
