Oracle ADF Tutorial

1.ADF Introduction

The Oracle ADF can be used to build Web Applications by using its ADF Business Components (ADF BC), ADF Faces components on JSF Pages and ADF Bindings.

We use Oracle JDeveloper to build, test and secure Web applications.

2.Oracle Fusion Architecture

Oracle Fusion Middleware is a standards-based family of products that are often deployed and used in conjunction with one another to develop Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) applications, providing the benefits of common security, management, deployment architecture and development tools.

4. Design Patterns

In software engineering, a design pattern is a general repeatable solution to a commonly occurring problem in software design. A design pattern isn't a finisheddesign that can be transformed directly into code. It is a description or template for how to solve a problem that can be used in many different situations.
