APEX or ADF?

There’s already a lot blogged about “when” to use “what” development tool. At almost all Oracle events there’s also a discussion about APEX, ADF, Forms, …

A few months ago I also had some mail exchange with Chris Muir about what I thought are the strengths of APEX, and he about ADF. Normally an article should be made available soon. There were some other people also involved in this discussion, the final outcome is managed by Chris.

Next on the agenda… a live confrontation between the two technologies!

Michiel Jonckers of AMIS Technology (he was one of our students at our European APEX Training Days (site no longer online)) contacted me with the question if I was interested to go on stage together with Lucas Jellema, a known “ADF lover” and a recognized Oracle speaker, to discuss the weakness and strengths of both technologies. I happily accepted, of course!

The date and place: Monday, December 17th from 16:30 till 21:00 in Nieuwegein (NL).

Of course it’s not a real fight ;-) Lucas and I will try to guide you through both technologies, the goal is not to have one winner. I guess at the end of the evening we should know what to use when…
