Oracle REST Data Services
Oracle REST Data Services (formerly known as Oracle APEX Listener) provides several key capabilities for the Oracle Database. REST Data Services accepts RESTful Web Service call URIs and directs them to the appropriate SQL statement or PL/SQL block. REST Data Services marshals data returned from SQL statements into JSON or .csv format and also redirects calls to Application Express applications to the Application Express run-time engine.
Oracle REST Data Services is a J2EE-based alternative for Oracle HTTP Server (OHS) and mod_plsql. The J2EE implementation offers increased functionality including a web based configuration, enhanced security, and file caching. REST Data Services also provides flexibility by supporting deployments using Oracle Web Logic Server (WLS), Oracle Glassfish Server and Apache Tomcat.
We can configure your Oracle Database with the following web servers.
- WebLogic Server
- GlassFish
- Apache(OHS)
