The following products are available in the Oracle HTML DB installation type:
Note:
The Summary window of Oracle Universal Installer provides a detailed list of the products available with the Oracle HTML DB installation type.Oracle HTML DB is a tool for rapid development and deployment of Web applications on an Oracle database. It provides developers with the productivity of a desktop database, but with the security, reliability, and performance of the Oracle database. With little programming or scripting and only a Web browser, you can build reporting and data entry applications either on existing tables or views or by importing data from spreadsheets.
Oracle HTTP Server is a Web server that is based on Apache Standalone version 10.2.0.0. Use the Oracle HTML DB installation type to install Oracle HTTP Server in a new Oracle home. (If you are installing Oracle Workflow middle tier components, Oracle HTTP Server is available with Oracle Database 10g Companion Products.) This standalone release of Oracle HTTP Server provides the following features:
A robust and reliable Web server that you can use to serve Web pages
Support for Perl and Fast CGI scripts using mod_perl and mod_fastcgi
Support for PL/SQL applications using mod_plsql
High-availability, through the use of Oracle Process Manager and Notification server (OPMN)
OPMN monitors Oracle HTTP Server processes and restarts them if they fail.
Support for secure transactions using secure socket layer (SSL)
Single sign-on capabilities using mod_osso
To enable single sign-on, you must use Oracle HTTP Server in conjunction with Oracle Internet Directory and Single Sign-On Server, both of which are available with Oracle Application Server 10g.
Many standard Apache modules, in addition to modules provided by Oracle

Legato Single Server Version (LSSV) is no longer supported on Oracle Database. Oracle Database Recovery Manager (RMAN), which is a backup and recovery tool integrated into Oracle Database. Oracle Database Backup and Recovery Basics covers RMAN in more detail.
Oracle provides a set of JDBC drivers that you can use for debugging your code and other deployment scenarios. These drivers can access Oracle Database release 8.1.7 or later.

Oracle SQLJ enables applications programmers to embed SQL operations in Java code in a way that is compatible with the Java design philosophy. A SQLJ program is a Java program containing embedded SQL statements. Oracle SQLJ offers extensions to support dynamic SQL operations—those that are not predefined, where the operations themselves can change in real-time. It is also possible to use dynamic SQL operations through JDBC code or PL/SQL code within a SQLJ application. Typical applications contain much more static SQL than dynamic SQL. SQLJ has both a translator and a runtime component and is smoothly integrated into your development environment.
Oracle Database Examples include a variety of examples and product demonstrations that you can use to learn about the products, options, and features of Oracle Database. Many of these examples are designed to work with the Sample Schemas which you can optionally install in any Oracle database. Many of the documents in the Oracle Online Documentation Library use the example programs and scripts provided with the Oracle Database Examples.
Before you can use the Oracle Database Examples, you must install the Sample Schemas into an Oracle database. When you install Oracle Database, or use Database Configuration Assistant (DBCA) to create a new database, you can choose to include the Sample Schemas when you create the database. You can also manually install the Sample Schemas into an existing database.
See Also:
Oracle Database Sample Schemas for information about manually installing the Sample Schemas into an existing databaseThe Oracle Database 10g Products installation type installs two Oracle Text knowledge bases, English and French. You can extend the supplied knowledge bases depending on your requirements. Alternatively, you can create your own knowledge bases, in languages other than English and French.

Its technology enables modeling, automation, and continuous improvement of business processes, routing information of any type according to user–defined business rules. The Oracle Workflow installation includes Oracle Workflow server and Oracle Workflow Manager on the Oracle Database Products installation type and the Oracle Workflow middle tier components on the Companion Products installation type.
In this release, starting the Oracle Application Server Containers for J2EE (OC4J) instances for Oracle Workflow Manager has been simplified to running two scripts.
Note:
Do not install Oracle Workflow server in an Oracle E-Business Suite database. If you want to use the version of Oracle Workflow available with Oracle Database 10g, or any Oracle Database components that depend on this version of Oracle Workflow, you must install the Oracle Workflow server into a database that is not used for an Oracle E-Business Suite instance.For an Oracle E-Business Suite database, you can continue to use the version of the Oracle Workflow server embedded in Oracle E-Business Suite instead.

Other Installation Types that Install Oracle Workflow
Oracle Workflow is also installed by some installation types of the following products:
Oracle Application Server 10g
Oracle Content Management SDK 10g
If you installed either of these products, you might already have installed Oracle Workflow. In this case, you do not need to install Oracle Workflow again.
You can use Oracle Ultra Search to build different kinds of search applications. It lets you index and search Web sites, database tables, files, mailing lists, Oracle Application Server Portals, and user-defined data sources.
The Oracle Database 10g Products installation type installs JAccelerator and Oracle interMedia Image Accelerator which contains the natively compiled Java libraries (NCOMPs) for Oracle JVM and Oracle interMedia. These libraries are required to improve the performance of these products on your platform.
JPublisher is a Java utility that generates Java classes to represent the following user-defined database entities in a Java program:
SQL object types
Object reference types (REF types)
SQL collection types (VARRAY types or nested table types)
PL/SQL packages
Server-side Java classes
SQL queries and DML statements
You can use JPublisher to specify and customize the mapping of SQL object types, object reference types, and collection types (VARRAYs or nested tables) to Java classes in a strongly typed paradigm.
JPublisher also can generate classes for PL/SQL packages. These classes have wrapper methods to invoke the stored procedures in the PL/SQL packages.
In addition, JPublisher simplifies access to PL/SQL-only types from Java. You can employ predefined or user-defined mappings between PL/SQL and SQL types, as well as use PL/SQL conversion functions between such types. With such type correspondences in place, JPublisher can automatically generate the required Java and PL/SQL code.
In a similar way that SQL or PL/SQL entities publish to Java, you can publish server-side Java classes to client-side Java classes. Doing this enables applications to make direct calls to Java classes in the database.
JPublisher lets you expose generated Java classes as Web services, for example. You can publish either SQL or PL/SQL entities or server-side Java entities.
JPublisher uses SQLJ code in most Java classes that it generates, so it includes Oracle SQLJ Translator and Oracle SQLJ Runtime. Oracle SQLJ is a standard way to embed SQL statements in Java programs.
Because JPublisher uses SQLJ code in its generated classes, it automatically invokes the Oracle SQLJ translator during the code generation process, as necessary. The translator converts embedded SQL statements into JDBC calls.
Oracle SQLJ Runtime is used during program execution to execute most classes that were generated by JPublisher. SQLJ Runtime is a thin layer of pure Java code that runs above the JDBC driver. It acts as an intermediary that reads information about SQL operations and passing instructions along to the JDBC driver.

Note:
The Summary window of Oracle Universal Installer provides a detailed list of the products available with the Oracle Database 10g Companion Products installation type.Oracle Workflow middle tier components enable the Oracle Workflow user interface Web pages, including the Database Access Descriptor (DAD) and virtual directory mappings for Oracle Workflow. Before you can use Oracle Workflow server, you must install Oracle Workflow middle tier components. The Oracle Workflow middle tier components are associated with one Oracle database, the database for which Oracle Workflow server is installed.
Use the Oracle Database 10g Companion Products installation type to install the Oracle Workflow middle tier components after you install Oracle Workflow server.
