Briefly, our current setup includes Web enabled forms (PL/SQL Cartridges) accessing an 8i database via 9ias (currently OAS 4.2 but will be moving to 9ias in a month). Btw, we also use ORACLE APPS (11i) using the same Web Server (apps and ias handled by another dba... thankfully :-) ......)

For a new system (requirement : ability for customers to upload files (xml, fixed format text file or spreadsheet, or enter data via a form. Need only specific people to be able to upload these files. Files need to be transmitted and saved securely...... Digital signature ?. These files could be required later (Law suit)) that we are looking at, a couple of new guys
(who believe that the Sun rises and sets because of Microsoft !!!!) are
proposing using IIS --> ASP --> OEMDB --> ORACLE database (existint DB). They also have a problem with IIS --> JSP --> JDBC --> ORACLE DB (they claim JSP would be an overhead on IIS and would slow it down)

I don't know the web stuff well enough (Obviously :-) !!!) to see the holes
(if any) in this approach. Their complaint is that 9ias is slow (or in their
words, ORACLE should stay with databases and not get into the Web server world !!!)

Opinions / Info that would help ?????

Thanks,
Sunny
