About the Embedded PL/SQL Gateway |

The embedded PL/SQL gateway provides Oracle Database XE with a Web server and also the necessary infrastructure to create dynamic applications. The embedded PL/SQL gateway runs in the XML database HTTP server in the Oracle Database XE database. It includes the core features of mod_plsql, but does not require the Oracle HTTP server powered by Apache.
To establish connectivity from a browser via HTTP, the installation process creates database access descriptor (DAD) that is mapped to a virtual path. A DAD is a set of configuration values used to access the database and the virtual path mapping makes applications accessible under a virtual path of XML DB HTTP Server.
