I like everyone won&#x27;t be sad to see Java Applets disappear.<p>However you&#x27;d be surprised how many large or giant orgs (inc. governments) are still utilising Oracle Forms and Reports, as a mainstay. We&#x27;re talking about thousands of these horrible forms going back to the 1990s.<p>Oracle has announced some kind of vague &quot;way forward&quot; for the technology but as of yet they&#x27;ve been light on details. They have tried to replace Forms and Reports several times but with limited success (partly because of previous investments&#x2F;sunk costs, and partly because Oracle licensing costs are horrifying).
