In this chapter, we reviewed the many aspects of using SQL Developer and Application Express together to provide a strengthened working environment. By supporting Oracle Application Express, SQL Developer offers additional support to an Application Express developer who is working with, and managing, a large number of applications or who writes a lot of extra SQL and PL/SQL code to support the applications.

The next and final chapter is about working with non-Oracle databases and migrating database objects and data to Oracle. We'll show the tight integration of SQL Developer and the migration features available when working with and browsing non-Oracle databases and then using the migration utilities.
