It’s ALIVE!

Oracle just makes me happy. I’ve heard some bad press lately about them, their service, etc… – but they have a D A R N good database, and I just love it when a plan comes together.

Troy and I have the DB running well now, and today we got the modplsql Apache working. That means that we can serve PL (PL/SQL) procedures out to the web. I know – it’s no new thing – we’ve been doing it forever. But NOW – we have it working on the new Oracle 10g DB – which no one has done here yet.

Long story short, I’m happy we got it working. I don’t understand ALL the fine-grained details yet, but I have most of it figured out. It’s exciting, and soon we’ll have all the necessary components working and our training complete – and we can begin testing to move the Dining menuing and inventory application over. Once that’s working well, my Machiavellian scheme can continue by bringing all my other supported applications over to this ONE Oracle server.

Wouldn’t that be wonderful…
