Subject: WebDB and IAS

Hi,

We were just beginning to use WebDB as a tool for building quick and
easy web pages from Oracle datamarts. Now WebDB seems to have
transformed itself into iPortal and is bundled with the IAS.
You can't even buy a license for a stand alone version of WebDB
anymore (according to our Oracle sales rep). I am not sure if iPortal
can be used without IAS.

Our problem is that WebDB was a good solution for us. We have no
need at the moment to install IAS and go to a three tier solution.
What are other companies using for building quick and easy web 
pages?
