tharpa, if you have a web server such as apache or IIS then these can be used to host application web pages that access data in Oracle but depending on what type of connection to Oracle your code uses you may need to install an Oracle client on the server to support the connection.
The Web Application Server documentation should have a section that discusses the requirements for accessing databases.
If you are really talking about a development environment product then again reference the product documentation.
