Slide deck is pretty much done and uploaded to ODTUG.  I still have a few ideas in my head, just not sure how to lay them out in a slide.  If you aren't coming to Seattle, no worries! After KSCOPE, I will start uploading the deck in a series of posts...

Interestingly, while working on the EBS 12 test system I ran across the same issue everyone has when migrating my APEX integration pieces from 11.  The removal of mod pl/sql by Oracle ruins most of what everyone has done in 11.

So my next undertaking will be to figure out a way to migrate my 11 integration to 12 without changing too much in the way of code AND including an extra layer of security.  Preliminary tests show that while the current methodologies suggested to integrate 12 work and is "secure", I believe there might be a missing piece in making the integration more robust in terms of security.

Stay tuned...

I am speaking at Kscope 14!

Update: 

Hopefully, I will be finished testing apps and updating slides to cover APEX 4.2.4.00.08 and Oracle REST Data Services 2.0.6.42.09.36 and possibly adding some 12.2.3 notes.

How to Integrate EBS 11i with APEX 4.2

When: Jun 25, 2014, Session 14, 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Topic: Application Express - Subtopic: No Subtopic

In researching possible solutions for replacing an outdated Discoverer instance used for HR reporting, APEX became the tool of choice. However, as with any change in core technologies, a number of issues were encountered that needed to be resolved. This presentation will examine the steps used to integrate EBS 11i and APEX 4.2, including the mapping of responsibilities used to secure data consumed by the users and how to provide menu and navigator links to launch APEX reports directly from EBS.
