Starting with Oracle Database 21c, developers can now execute JavaScript within the database. This functionality is enabled by the Multilingual Engine (MLE), powered by GraalVM. And APEX 20.2 is the first (and only) low code framework on the planet which natively supports server-side JavaScript, out of the box!

Check out this Oracle Office Hours video featuring Lucas Braun, Program Manager for GraalVM and part of the esteemed Oracle Labs team, and Stefan Dobre, who is a developer at FOEX AT and a respected luminary in the Oracle APEX community.
