With Oracle Forms 11g Release 2 you can use Oracle Access Manager for authentication and authorization of your Oracle Forms application. Reduced Installation Footprint In order to reduce the resource requirements on development machines, you can perform an installation specifically tailored for development. This will limit the number of software products and servers installed on the machine whilst still allowing a developer to build, run and test their Forms application. Performance and Monitoring Oracle Forms 11g Release 2 provides more dynamic capabilities to pre-start Forms runtime processing. For example, an administrator can define a set number of runtime engines to be started at 9am if it is known that most users log onto the system at that time. This will result in improved start up times for users. This new version of Forms also includes a feature to allow administrators to identify network performance issues. The networkStats feature will report information such as latency and bytes transmitted. A new feature has also been added allowing a Forms application to have performance metrics logged to database tables for later analysis.
