I've had no problems deploying web applications developed with Jdeveloper using MS Internet Information Server. Uses less resources than client/server. You can also use WebDB, but since I already had ISS with NT, it was cheaper to use it.

At the Developer'99 seminar in New Orleans on Oct. 19th, the question was raised whether Oracle will continue to support OAS. The answer was that they have no plans to drop OAS.
