Oracle APEX 23.2 is now generally available for download and is rolling out to
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) regions across the globe.

This release enables developers to easily build secure and scalable enterprise
cloud, mobile, and SaaS apps with low-code. App builders now have access to a
variety of native enterprise features and capabilities that include end-to-end
process automation, collaborative development, and new User Interface (UI)
components.  

Here are some of the highlights of Oracle APEX 23.2 for Enterprise-Scale
Application Development
 

 * End-to-End Process Automation with native Workflow
   
   Fully integrated workflow solution that enables developers to automate
   business processes and worflows, both system-to-system and human-system,
   using an intuitive, visual workflow designer built natively into the
   platform.
    
 * Collaborative Development - Application Working Copies
   
   Native team development capability enables developers to create a working
   copy of an app to fix a bug or add a feature, then selectively merge their
   changes back into the main application.  Thus developers can work on
   different aspects of the same app in parallel.
    
 * New UI Components 
   
   New world class page items that include QR code generator, image upload and
   combobox give enterprise apps fresh capabilities without coding.

This release also includes numerous additional features and bug fixes resulting
in even higher quality and stability for APEX apps. For more information about
the new features in Oracle APEX 23.2, as well as many of the other exciting
enhancements, please see the Release Notes or visit the What's New page.  You
can also watch our five-part APEX 23.2 New Features office hours series by
visiting the Oracle APEX Office Hours page.  

Oracle APEX is powered by a vibrant community of 700,000+ developers, who are
building sophisticated apps to address organizations most demanding challenges. 
These developers plays a big role in the success and product direction of APEX,
and we're thrilled to share that in APEX 23.2, we have implemented more than 20
ideas that came directly from developer requests. APEX developers are building
apps that range across ERP, Content Management, CRM, Freight Management, Payment
processing, Fraud detection and even simple spreadsheets replacement.  With
APEX, compared to 'high code' technologies, these developers are able to build
enterprise apps with world class features 20X faster with 100X less code while
reducing the application development effort by 65%. 

Low-code app builders are also looking at ways to leverage AI to deliver new
cutting-edge capabilities for their organizations. According to Gartner®, “by
2024, 40% of enterprise applications will have embedded conversational AI, up
from less than 5% in 2020.“*  

Oracle APEX enables app builders via REST APIs to easily integrate with a suite
of OCI AI services to build next-gen AI-powered apps.  These AI services include
Oracle Generative AI (currently in limited availability), AI Speech, AI Vision,
Oracle Document Understanding, Oracle Digital Assistant, and Oracle Data
Science. With the combination of Oracle APEX and OCI AI services, developers can
incorporate powerful AI features to deliver personalized experiences and
recommendations, process natural language prompts, automate image and object
detection, generate text (email, marketing copy, etc), and more.

 

APEX Availability & Pricing

Oracle APEX is available as a standalone, fully managed service in OCI (all
global cloud regions) as a pay per use model. You pay for only the resources you
consume, there is no per app or per user fee hassle. There is also a free
version included in OCI’s Always Free services. It’s also included as a no-cost
feature with any Oracle Database service, including Autonomous Database. There
is no extra charge for specific features - all features are available to
all customers.
 

Customers

As of today, customers worldwide have created more than 19 Million apps with
Oracle APEX.  We are receiving very positive feedback from users across the
world who have tried APEX 23.2 preview over the past month.  Here are a few
quotes from the actual users of the product:

"The possibility for developers to create branches makes the app development
experience much easier and is my top favorite feature in APEX 23.2. The visual
builder adaption to workflows is a great enhancement to create complicated
tasks. We are already using faceted search and the latest enhancements with
filter options provides much greater flexibility to the users." – Dr. Birthe
Gebhardt, Team Lead, Siemens Mobility

"We have a very large APEX Team working on multiple applications. Application
Working Copies in APEX 23.2 is going to have a huge impact especially on our
release teams in understanding what changed and keeping everything straight. I
am personally excited about Template Components and to see the creativity of
people in how we can bring in visualizations that are more interesting than what
come out of the box. Looking forward to getting our hands on APEX 23.2 soon!" –
Sayee Natarajan, CEO RxDataScience, Syneos Health

"As a developer, the Application Working Copies is a life saver in APEX 23.2.
This will enable our team to work together and review the changes before merging
them. Previously, we had to maintain multiple copies of the same app. Workflows
are also going to have a huge impact on our customers with easy task management
using the new visual designer" – Tasos Tzamarias, Munich RE HealthTech
 

"We have been using APEX since version 18 and I am excited to see the APEX team
releasing great new features with every release. Personally, we have been
waiting for the Application Working Copies since a year. QR Code generator as a
declarative option is an important feature in today's age since people use QR
code for documents and reports. Previously, we had to use third-party tools to
achieve the same. Congrats to the entire APEX team on the new release!" – Suketu
Shah, Managing Director, Soham ERP
