Forms in the Cloud and JRE

Dan KingSep 24 2025

I'm curious about the current state of Oracle Forms in the context of cloud computing. Are companies still actively developing and deploying new Oracle Forms applications to the cloud, or is this mostly about maintaining legacy systems while leveraging cloud infrastructure?

Is Apex generally considered a more strategic choice for new development or modernization efforts? For organizations with existing Forms applications, is migrating to APEX the more sensible long-term approach, especially for scalability, maintainability, and user experience in the cloud?

Also, going back to Oracle Forms, is JRE still required to run Forms-based applications in a cloud setup?
