I've been working on/with 9iAS for a couple of months. Please keep in mind that 9iAS is just Oracle's "packaging" of at least SIX different & distinct products into a "bundle".

1) Forms60 Server
2) Reports60 Serever
3) Portal 3
4) Web Chache
5) Database Cache
6) Discoverer

While some of these products store objects within a DB, others do NOT store ANY objects within a DB.

Simply put, it all depends upon which piece of 9iAS you are talking about.
