Abstract
This talks gives an overview of the Java support inside Oracle 8i.
Oracle wrote a special Java VM that executes in the same address space
as the SQL and PL/SQL engine. This Java VM allows you to run Java
Stored Procedures, CORBA objects, Enterprise Java Beans or Java
Servlets directly inside the SQL server. By relying on the TP-monitor
like capabilities of the Oracle SQL server Java programs running
inside Oracle 8i "scale" extremely well.
