ORCLAPEX NYC Meetup – October 2016

Welcome to ORLCAPEX NYC’s October 2016 meetup! Here’s a look at the agenda…

Marc Sewtz  – APEX 5.1 Universal Theme reloaded: APEX 5.1 will ship with an updated Universal Theme, offering a refined look, new theme styles and more template options. To take advantage of these enhancements, you’ll have the refresh your theme once you’ve upgraded to APEX 5.1. We’ll show you how to do that and how to take advantage of the new Live Template Options to instantly explore all the new options at runtime. We’ll also look at the new theme customization options and APIs, which will allow your end users to pick their own preferred theme style while using your apps.

Monica Godoy – No Excuses for Insecure Apps: URL Tampering? SQL Injection? Have you ever thought about how secure your app is? Before publishing your app, evaluate it first with APEX-SERT, an open source project that evaluates your APEX applications for security vulnerabilities. In this session, we are going to see how fast you can install APEX-SERT, how to perform an evaluation of an APEX app, and finally how to fix it or create an exception of a vulnerability.

Dan McGhan – Learning from Packaged Applications: The Packaged Applications that ship with APEX can be an excellent resource for learning. Application Search, Change Tracking, Flex Fields – those are just a few of the features that can be reverse engineered and added to your own applications. In this session, attendees will get an overview of the Packaged Applications that covers some of the features and design decisions that go into making them.

Also, we’ll be giving away a free copy of the recently released book: Expert Oracle Application Express, 2nd Edition. Just show us something cool you’ve done with APEX. If you’re the only one to show a demo, you win!

We hope to see you there!
