Application Express (APEX) continues to grow in popularity for application development, both for new business use cases as well as migration from older development technologies (e.g. PowerBuilder).

The most on-premises installations of Oracle databases are not using all available Oracle database packs and features. The reasons behind that could be different but one factor is always there and it is the cost.
