The JAVA platform is a fundamentally new way of computing, based on the power of networks and the idea that the same software should run on many different kinds of computers, consumer gadgets, and other devices.
With JAVA technology, you can use the same application from any kind of machine -- a PC, a Macintosh computer, a network computer, or even new technologies like Internet screen phones.

To allow the developers to fully customize HPS to their needs, the built-in server-side scripting language "HexBase Script" can be extended with JAVA libraries, which can be called directly from within the Web pages. This open the way to implement data access functions to legacy systems, other databases or even to other platforms.

With the release of Oracle8i, Oracle has delivered Oracle JServer, a highly scalable and portable Java engine fully integrated with the Oracle8i database kernel.
HPS with ORACLE 8i provides a highly productive programming model, optimized performance and scalability, and is 100 percent compatible with Java standards.
