Deterministic Vibe Coding: Combining AI Agents with Low-Code Platforms

A new approach that combines AI creative power with Oracle APEX discipline

Deterministic Vibe Coding infographic

The Problem with Traditional Vibe Coding

While "vibe coding" (where you describe what you want and an AI agent writes the code) is exciting, it has serious flaws when applied to real production systems.

  • Safety: AI agents have enormous freedom and can accidentally change authorization schemes, authentication settings, or security policies because they lack full understanding of business requirements.
  • Teamwork: Different developers using AI will produce code in dramatically different styles, making it extremely difficult to integrate AI-generated code into large existing projects.

The root cause of both problems is that agents and developers are given unlimited access to code with no guardrails.

The Low-Code Solution

Low-code platforms, like Oracle APEX, have been built over many years specifically to solve these problems for human developers. They provide a programmatic API as an intermediary layer that strictly controls the rules. A developer cannot bypass global security settings; the platform does not allow them to deviate from the application's boundaries. Oracle has been developing this highly deterministic platform for over 20 years.

The Breakthrough: Deterministic Vibe Coding

The breakthrough is giving the AI agent access to the API provided by the low-code platform, rather than directly to the code. Regardless of the agent's style or context, it performs targeted tasks that fully integrate into the system and are production-ready immediately.

A Real-World Demo: Oracle APEX

To demonstrate this concept, an AI agent (Claude Code) was used to add a completely new inventory module to an existing 127-page Oracle APEX application (Customer Tracker). The goal was to build a system that scrapes top-selling products from Amazon, stores them locally, and tracks inventory levels.

  • What was built: The agent successfully built 3 new database tables, a PL/SQL package to sync Amazon data, and 6 new APEX pages (including an inventory dashboard and interactive transaction reports).
  • How it was built: Everything was done through the CLI (SQLcl) using a strict export-patch-import workflow. The agent perfectly matched the existing application's patterns, including ID generation, audit columns, and authorization schemes.
  • Catching Errors: When the AI agent made mistakes (such as using the wrong authorization parameter or placing SQLERRM directly in DML statements), the deterministic platform caught and rejected the errors at import time, preventing the AI from silently breaking the application.

Why This Is Significant

Traditional enterprise development is slow, and traditional vibe coding is dangerous. Deterministic Vibe Coding is both fast and safe. The resulting module is indistinguishable from what a skilled APEX developer would create manually, because the platform's deterministic API enforces all best practices and standards.

Questions & Answers

What Oracle APEX offers as a legacy ERP alternative

Practical answers to the key questions: migration strategy, security, costs, integrations, customization, timelines, and risks.

How do you migrate from legacy ERP without disrupting operations?

The recommended approach is phased migration, not a one-shot replacement. Start with an audit of the current landscape, then identify critical modules, integrations, and checkpoints.

  • Parallel system operation — the new system runs alongside the old one, with data verified at each stage.
  • APEX + Oracle Database allow you to build the new layer module by module.
  • REST API and ETL handle integration with banks, POS, CRM, and internal services at every stage.

Why Oracle APEX instead of another boxed ERP product?

Most boxed solutions swap one set of constraints for another. Oracle APEX is a platform, not a rigid configuration. You build the system around your business, not the other way around.

  • Low-code speed — MVP in 2-4 weeks for an individual module.
  • Full flexibility in UI and workflows — custom forms, reports, dashboards, workflows.
  • Oracle Database as the foundation — a reliable base instead of compromise solutions.

Is this only for large enterprises, or does it work for SMBs?

Oracle APEX works for SMBs as well. You do not need to build a full-scale ERP on day one — start with one critical module.

  • Oracle Cloud Free Tier — free start for testing and small projects.
  • MVP in 2-4 weeks — realistic for a focused process.
  • Scaling without rewriting — when the business grows, the architecture holds.

What about security and compliance?

Security is a baseline requirement, not an optional extra. Especially when dealing with sensitive business data, financial records, and personal information.

  • Oracle APEX — built-in protection against SQL injection, XSS, CSRF, and other common vulnerabilities.
  • Oracle Database 26ai — quantum-resistant encryption, auditing, access control, Data Safe.
  • Moving away from risky legacy software is both a security and regulatory decision.

What does migration cost and what is the TCO of an Oracle APEX solution?

TCO depends on scope and complexity. But there are key structural differences from boxed products:

  • No license fees for APEX — Oracle APEX is free when using Oracle Database.
  • Oracle Cloud Free Tier — for getting started and testing.
  • Lower cost of changes — low-code means faster, cheaper modifications to business logic.
  • Transparent architecture — no vendor lock-in at the business logic level, everything is SQL/PL/SQL.

How do integrations with banks, POS, and other systems work?

Oracle APEX natively supports REST API, which allows integration with virtually any external service.

  • REST API — bidirectional data exchange with banks, payment systems, CRM.
  • Oracle Integration Cloud — for complex integration scenarios with pre-built connectors.
  • ETL and data pipelines — data migration and synchronization between systems.
  • Webhook support — real-time integrations with external services.

What level of customization is possible with Oracle APEX?

Unlike boxed solutions where customization is limited to settings, Oracle APEX provides full freedom in building.

  • Custom UI — any forms, reports, dashboards, charts without template limitations.
  • Business logic in PL/SQL — complex calculations, validations, automations.
  • Interactive Reports and Grid — powerful analytics tools with drag-and-drop.
  • AI via Select AI — users can query data in natural language.

What are the risks of migration and how do you minimize them?

The main risks are data loss, business downtime, and team resistance. All are minimized with the right strategy.

  • Phased approach — module by module with parallel system operation.
  • Data verification — each migration stage is validated before moving to the next.
  • Team training — Oracle APEX has a low entry barrier for end users.
  • Rollback plan — at every stage, there is an option to return to the previous state.

IT Ukraine Association: 'Safe Software — Business Resilience' (May 2026) — Over 70% of Ukrainian Companies Still Use Russian or Belarusian Software; CERT-UA Recorded 5,927 Cyber Incidents in 2025 With Russian-Origin Software as a Frequent Entry Point; Businesses Reassessing IT Infrastructure Through the Lens of Risk and Operational Resilience (itukraine.org.ua, 2026)

Situation: IT Ukraine Association, in collaboration with the Ukrainian Catholic University, published 'Safe Software — Business Resilience: Research Findings' (May 28, 2026). Key data: over 70% of surveyed Ukrainian companies still use software developed in Russia or Belarus as of the first half of 2026; CERT-UA recorded 5,927 cyber incidents in 2025 — Russian-origin software frequently served as the initial intrusion point. Most-used systems before 2022: 1C, Bitrix24, BAS Corporation — most have seen virtually no development for years, with companies experiencing absent updates, frequent errors, integration difficulties, and limited scalability. Shift in decision drivers: in 2026, businesses evaluate IT infrastructure through the lens of risk, operational resilience, data protection, and investment attractiveness — not just cost and convenience. Research sectors: agriculture, finance, retail, energy, IT.
APEXREST view: The IT Ukraine research confirms the actual scale of the migration market: 70%+ of companies represents the structural reality of the 2026 market, not a fringe delay. CERT-UA's 5,927 cyber incidents with Russian-origin software as the entry point is a concrete cybersecurity argument that validates the regulatory logic behind the 1C/BAS ban.

Oracle Deep Data Security GA in Oracle AI Database 26ai: Declarative Database-Level Authorization for AI Agents at Row, Column, and Cell Granularity; Transparent End-User Identity Propagation; Microsoft Entra ID and OCI IAM Support; Unauthorized Data Never Reaches the AI Layer Even Under Application Compromise (blogs.oracle.com/database, 2026)

What's new: Oracle announced the general availability of Oracle Deep Data Security in Oracle AI Database 26ai. Core concept: authorization is enforced inside the database — unauthorized rows and columns never reach the AI layer even if the application or agentic layer is subverted or makes an error. Technical implementation: declarative SQL policies for row-level, column-level, and cell-level access control applied consistently across all workloads (AI agents, analytics tools, enterprise applications). Transparent identity propagation: end-user and agent identities, roles, and attributes are relayed to the database at runtime — the database enforces policies and generates detailed audit records capturing individual user activity. External IAM: Microsoft Entra ID and OCI IAM supported. APEX AI Agents context: Oracle APEX 26.1 AI Agents act on behalf of end users; Deep Data Security ensures an agent cannot access data the end user is not authorized to see, even in complex multi-step agentic workflows.
APEXREST view: Oracle Deep Data Security closes the key enterprise security requirement for AI Agents — data access rights are enforced at the Oracle AI Database level regardless of agentic workflow complexity or application layer compromise. For enterprises with sensitive financial or HR data in Oracle APEX + Oracle AI Database deployments, Deep Data Security is a production prerequisite for enterprise AI agents.

BDO Ukraine: Legal Guidance for Businesses Amid the 1C/BAS Ban — Step-by-Step Action Plan: IT Audit Order, Read-Only Mode, Comfort Letters for Banks; CFO and Accountant Retention Risk; Fines Up to 2% of Turnover From 2030 (bdo.ua, 2026)

Situation: BDO Ukraine, part of the international BDO network (Top 5 professional services globally), published legal guidance for businesses facing the 1C and BAS ban. Key findings: 1C and BAS are on Ukraine's official list of software posing a national security threat (State Special Communications Service); Draft Law No. 13505 introduces fines of up to 2% of annual turnover from 2030; a real staffing risk has emerged — qualified CFOs and chief accountants are declining positions at companies that ignore sanctions compliance; banks request evidence of migration activity during compliance checks. BDO's recommended three-step action: (1) Issue an IT Systems Audit Order (key document for tax authorities and bank compliance); (2) Switch 1C/BAS to read-only mode with a formal order (legally separates prohibited use from mandatory archival retention); (3) Prepare a Comfort Letter for banks and counterparties (confirms active migration). BAS via Polish "BAS ERP": BDO advises against relying on the Polish jurisdiction as long-term protection.
APEXREST view: BDO's guidance confirms that the risk of continuing on 1C/BAS in 2026 is no longer just regulatory — it is simultaneously a staffing risk (CFOs/accountants refuse), a banking risk (compliance checks), and a strategic risk (shrinking support ecosystem). For enterprises with complex 1C configurations, Oracle APEX + Oracle AI Database provides the highest level of business logic preservation during migration — without the compromises of generic ERP packages.

Oracle Fusion Cloud EPM 26.07 (July 3 — Test, July 17 — Production): Generative AI in Oracle Planning Requires Version 26.04 or Later; Environments Below 26.04 Lose GenAI Access by End of July — Critical Deadline for Enterprise Oracle Fusion EPM Customers; New Advanced Predictions Algorithms and Multi-Value RTP in EPM Automate (docs.oracle.com, 2026)

What's new: Oracle Fusion Cloud EPM July 2026 Update (26.07) deploys to test environments today (July 3, 2026) — production environments update on July 17. Critical GenAI change: starting with 26.07, Oracle Generative AI features in Oracle Planning are available only to tenants running version 26.04 (April 2026) or later. Tenants that are not upgraded to 26.04 by end of July lose access to all GenAI features — AI-assisted workflows, natural language planning, AI-driven analytics. New capabilities in 26.07: support for multi-value RTP parameters in the EPM Automate simulateConcurrentUsage command and EPM REST API for automated concurrent operation testing; new regression algorithms in Advanced Predictions with a comparative table of algorithm capabilities. Oracle Fusion Cloud EPM scope: Planning, Budgeting and Forecasting, Financial Consolidation and Close, Account Reconciliation — key corporate modules for enterprise financial accounting and planning.
APEXREST view: The GenAI deadline in Oracle EPM 26.07 is a concrete operational risk for enterprise Oracle Fusion customers delaying updates: enterprise planning without GenAI in 2026 is a lost competitive advantage in financial forecasting and reporting. For enterprises evaluating Oracle Fusion Cloud (including EPM) as a replacement for legacy ERP in financial accounting, staying current with cloud updates is a standard SaaS expectation. Oracle APEX + Fusion EPM via the Fusion Apps REST Catalog delivers a custom reporting layer independent of the EPM tenant version. Consultation: [email protected]

BDO Ukraine: Bank Account Monitoring, Prozorro Tender Disqualification, and CFO Talent Risk for 1C/BAS Users Are Real Now — Not Just in 2030; Draft Law No. 13505 Provides for Fines Up to 2% of Annual Turnover (bdo.ua, 2026)

Situation: BDO Ukraine — part of the international BDO audit and consulting network — published a legal guidance report on the practical risks of continuing to use 1C and BAS after their inclusion in Ukraine's sanctioned software list. Risks active today: 1) Banking — Ukrainian banks are required to monitor transactions related to sanctioned software; some companies have already encountered complications in account servicing; 2) Procurement — Prozorro participants must confirm the absence of sanctioned software in operational use; the presence of BAS is grounds for automatic disqualification; 3) Talent — qualified accountants and CFOs are declining positions at companies that ignore sanctions legislation; 4) Technical — PRRO fiscal systems, banking APIs, and electronic document management platforms are progressively discontinuing support for 1C/BAS data exchange protocols. Draft Law No. 13505: fines of up to 2% of annual turnover from 2030. BDO recommendation: shift 1C/BAS to archive (read-only) mode with a formal order, and begin a planned migration.
APEXREST view: The BDO guidance confirms that the risks are already present. Bank monitoring, Prozorro disqualification, and CFO talent flight are realities in 2026 for companies still running 1C/BAS in operations. For enterprises with complex legacy configurations — manufacturing, WMS, custom document workflows — Oracle APEX enables accurate replication of specific business logic without the compromises of generic SaaS ERP packages.

SSA Marine Mexico Eliminates 100% of Legacy Systems Across Two Manzanillo Terminals With Oracle APEX: BITA Platform on Oracle AI Database + APEX + ORDS Automates 95% of Workflows; Oracle Publishes Case as Reference Architecture for Multi-System Legacy Replacement (blogs.oracle.com/apex, 2026)

What's new: The Oracle APEX Blog published an enterprise case study: SSA Marine Mexico, port operator of two terminals in Manzanillo, Mexico, eliminated all legacy systems and unified operations on Oracle APEX. Before: five disparate legacy systems in different languages on different databases, each requiring its own specialist, no integration between terminals, slow release cycles, growing technical debt. Solution: BITA platform on Oracle AI Database, Oracle APEX, and Oracle REST Data Services (ORDS) — all business logic and data validation at the Oracle Database level. Results: 100% elimination of all legacy systems across both terminals, 95% automation of workflows — cargo handling, warehousing, import-export control, inter-terminal document management. Next steps: AI-driven development, cybersecurity, multilingual apps, potential OCI migration. Oracle promotes the case as a demonstration of Oracle APEX as a full enterprise platform for replacing operational systems of any complexity. Relevance for ERP replacement: the SSA Marine situation (five disparate systems, no integration, specialist dependency per technology) closely mirrors the profile of an enterprise running 1C or BAS with ancillary legacy modules.
APEXREST view: The SSA Marine Mexico case shows that Oracle APEX can replace not only an ERP system but the entire stack of disparate legacy modules — WMS, document management, industry-specific accounting. A single Oracle AI Database + APEX + ORDS architecture replaces five independent systems. This is precisely the situation typical of enterprises leaving 1C/BAS along with ancillary legacy tools.

Oracle APEX 26.1 Blueprints for Spec-Driven Development: Markdown Specification + Oracle DB Schema → AI Coding Assistant → APEXlang → Working Prototype With Pages, Forms, Reports; New Workflow Accelerates Time-to-Prototype for Complex Legacy ERP Migration (blogs.oracle.com/apex, June 2026)

What's new: The Oracle APEX Blog described the new development methodology in APEX 26.1 — Spec-Driven Development (SDD) using Blueprints. A Blueprint is a structured Markdown document describing what APEX should build: pages, navigation, regions, reports, forms, charts, filters, actions, and page behavior. Workflow: 1) functional specification + Oracle DB schema passed to an AI coding assistant (GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude, etc.); 2) AI generates a Blueprint in Markdown; 3) Blueprint is converted to APEXlang and imported into APEX; 4) a working application scaffold with real Pages, Forms, Reports, Dashboards, Calendars, and Maps is generated. Key advantages: the Blueprint is inspectable before the app is created — traceability between specification and implementation. In many scenarios Blueprints are more token-efficient than direct APEXlang generation because they encode common APEX page patterns into reusable structures. The specification becomes the long-term source of truth: change the spec → regenerate the Blueprint → updated application. VS Code integration: APEXlang Extension supports viewing, validating, and importing Blueprints.
APEXREST view: APEX 26.1 Blueprints define a new path for enterprise ERP migration: functional specification → AI Blueprint → APEXlang → APEX prototype, replacing manual component-by-component configuration in Page Designer. For enterprises with complex legacy ERP configurations — manufacturing accounting, WMS, non-standard document workflows — Blueprints shorten the time from business requirements analysis to the first working prototype.

Ukraine: 68% of Businesses Have Not Replaced 1C/BAS Six Months After the Official Ban — Real Migration to Independent ERP Only 3%; ERP Implementer Shortage Is the Key Risk for Late Movers (oneservice-consulting.com, 2026)

Situation: A mid-2026 market analysis reveals that six months after the official inclusion of 1C and BAS in Ukraine's list of prohibited software (State Service for Special Communications, early 2026), 68% of Ukrainian companies have not yet completed a full transition to a new accounting or ERP system. Real migration to fully independent (non-BAS clone) products is only approximately 3% of the market. Primary obstacles: a significant shortage of qualified ERP implementation consultants (demand far exceeds supply); full ERP project timelines of 6–12 months for mid-size businesses; many companies are still evaluating alternatives. Technical barriers: complex custom business logic (manufacturing accounting, non-standard configurations) makes off-the-shelf SaaS solutions inadequate for a significant portion of the market. Migration paths by segment: cloud SaaS (Dilovod, BookKeeper) for small businesses — 1–3 month implementation; IT-Enterprise for large industrial enterprises; Oracle APEX for enterprise mandates with custom configurations and large data volumes; Odoo, SAP Business One for mid-market. Market outlook: H2 2026 is the expected peak demand period for ERP migrations; companies that have delayed decisions will face implementer shortages and rising service costs.
APEXREST view: 68% of non-migrated companies represent significant and growing demand throughout H2 2026. For enterprises with non-standard 1C/BAS configurations — manufacturing, WMS, custom document workflows — Oracle APEX enables accurate replication of specific business logic without the compromises inherent in generic ERP packages. The implementer shortage underscores the importance of selecting an experienced Oracle APEX partner now. Consultation: [email protected]

Oracle Critical Security Patch Update June 2026: 243 CVEs in 245 Security Patches — 10 Critical Vulnerabilities; Covers Fusion Middleware, E-Business Suite, MySQL; OCI Autonomous Database Receives Managed Patches Without APEX Application Downtime (blogs.oracle.com/security, June 2026)

What's new: Oracle released the June 2026 Critical Security Patch Update as part of its monthly security update cadence (introduced in 2025, replacing quarterly updates). Scale: 243 unique CVEs across 245 patches — 10 critical vulnerabilities, 122 patches (49.8%) rated critical. Coverage: Oracle Communications, E-Business Suite, Fusion Middleware, JD Edwards, MySQL, PeopleSoft, Siebel CRM, Supply Chain, and Virtualization. Oracle APEX: the June patch does not include APEX-specific CVEs — but includes third-party component patches that may affect APEX environments on WebLogic, Oracle Database, or Fusion Middleware. For enterprise APEX teams: verify OCI managed database patch status (Autonomous Database receives managed patches automatically); for on-premises Oracle APEX — check Oracle Database and WebLogic updates via My Oracle Support. Context: Oracle transitioned to monthly patching in 2025 — enterprise APEX operations teams should integrate a monthly patch review into their operational calendars.
APEXREST view: Oracle's monthly Critical Security Patch cycle requires a structured patch management approach in enterprise APEX environments. One key advantage of OCI Autonomous Database for APEX: managed security patches are applied by Oracle without downtime for end-user APEX applications — a concrete argument for cloud deployment when migrating from legacy ERP.

Ukraine Transitions to 'Kupyna' Electronic Signature Standard on September 1, 2026 — New KEP Certificates Use New Cryptographic Algorithm Only; ERP Systems and Software Require Compatibility Check; Enterprises Migrating From Legacy ERP Must Include Kupyna in Implementation Checklist (minfin.com.ua, June 28, 2026)

What's new: Ukraine's Ministry of Digital Transformation set September 1, 2026 as the deadline for full transition to the 'Kupyna' cryptographic standard. From that date, all new qualified electronic signatures (KEP) will be generated exclusively using the new algorithm. What doesn't change: existing KEP certificates remain valid until their expiry date — already-signed documents retain full legal force; systems will continue to verify old signatures. Business actions: verify Kupyna support in current software; confirm ERP and accounting system vendor update timelines. Context: organizations simultaneously migrating from 1C/BAS must include a Kupyna compatibility check for the new ERP platform in the technical specification — especially relevant for Oracle APEX applications with electronic document workflows.
APEXREST view: The 'Kupyna' standard transition is a mandatory item when selecting a 1C/BAS replacement: the new system must support Kupyna certificates before September 1, 2026. Oracle APEX on Oracle Autonomous Database: compatibility with updated e-signature standards is delivered through OCI and Oracle Database updates, independent of the ERP application vendor.

OpenAI GPT-4o, o3, and Codex Now Available via Oracle Universal Credits on OCI Marketplace — Enterprise Oracle APEX Teams Get Full Frontier AI Choice Without New Procurement or Multi-Vendor Billing (June 2026)

What's new: Oracle and OpenAI announced the availability of OpenAI frontier models and Codex through OCI Marketplace, with the ability to apply Oracle Universal Credits. Oracle customers can activate GPT-4o, o3, and Codex through their existing OCI account and cloud commitment — without a new contract with OpenAI and without new procurement processes. Background: Microsoft and OpenAI ended exclusivity on April 27, 2026 — OpenAI models are now licensed through AWS, Google Cloud, Oracle, and other providers. OCI channel: customers use the same governance and operational frameworks already applied to other OCI spending; single OCI billing. The move builds on the $300B Oracle–OpenAI infrastructure deal (September 2025). Impact on APEX 26.1: GPT-4o and o3 become available as alternative AI providers for APEX 26.1 AI Agents, NL2IR, and APEXlang — alongside OCI GenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, Mistral AI, and Ollama — without rewriting applications.
APEXREST view: OpenAI on OCI Marketplace via Universal Credits completes the enterprise AI choice for Oracle APEX 26.1: OCI GenAI, Claude, Gemini, OpenAI (GPT-4o/o3), Mistral, Ollama — all under a single OCI commitment without multi-vendor procurement overhead.

Oracle APEX 26.1: AI Interactive Reports (NL2IR) and Data Reporter — Business Analysts Refine Reports in Natural Language Without SQL and Publish Reports Without Page Designer; Key UX Features for Legacy ERP Replacement (blogs.oracle.com/apex, June 2026)

What's new: The Oracle APEX Blog published details on two key APEX 26.1 capabilities for business users. 1) APEX AI Interactive Reports (NL2IR): the Search bar now accepts natural language — "show April sales above 100K, sorted by manager" → APEX maps intent to declarative IR settings (filters, sorting, groupings, charts) without SQL generation. Available via the Search bar (AI option) and an Assistant chat panel. Supported providers: OCI GenAI, OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Mistral, Ollama. 2) Data Reporter 26.1: Editors build and publish reports via URL without Page Designer or developer involvement; Admins control trusted datasets and access rights. Together, these two features close the core UX gap between Oracle APEX and legacy ERP: end users gain self-service NL access to data and reports.
APEXREST view: NL2IR + Data Reporter address the "post-migration learning curve" problem: business analysts familiar with legacy ERP report builders get a functionally equivalent and more modern experience in Oracle APEX. These two features address one of the key objections to Oracle APEX as a replacement for organizations with large legacy report libraries. Consultation: [email protected]

EU Proposes Extending Temporary Protection for Ukrainians to March 2028 — European Commission, June 26, 2026: New Restrictions for Military-Age Men Without Authorization; Ukraine's $6.4B IT Sector Retains EU Workforce Continuity (ec.europa.eu, June 26, 2026)

Situation: The European Commission on June 26, 2026 proposed extending temporary protection for people fleeing Russia's aggression against Ukraine for an additional year, to March 4, 2028. Key terms: the extension covers those already residing under temporary protection in EU countries — newly arriving persons whom Ukraine has not authorized to leave due to military obligations are not eligible. The measure requires approval by EU member states — discussions expected in July 2026, with a final decision possible by September. Significance for IT: Ukraine's IT industry generates $6.4B per year (37.4% of services exports). A significant share of Oracle APEX, Oracle AI Database, and OCI specialists currently work from EU countries under temporary protection — in Poland, Czech Republic, Netherlands, Austria, and other member states. Extension to 2028 provides legal workforce continuity for distributed IT teams. Context: temporary protection is the legal basis for residence of a large share of Ukrainian IT professionals in the EU; its continuation means no administrative disruption to their ability to work.
APEXREST view: The EU proposal confirms availability of Ukrainian Oracle APEX and Oracle AI Database specialists from EU locations through March 2028. For enterprises planning ERP migration from legacy systems with Ukrainian IT partners based in the EU: workforce legal continuity is confirmed through at least March 2028 under the proposed terms.

What's new: June 26, 2026 is the official shutdown date: the GenerateText and SummarizeText APIs in the OCI Generative AI Inference API are now unavailable. The deprecation deadline was announced by Oracle on May 29, 2025 — exactly one year ago. Teams that did not complete migration to the Chat API will see errors on calls to /generateText and /summarizeText endpoints. The Chat API is a full replacement for all previous use cases — text generation, summarization, and instruction-following. For Oracle APEX AI Agents and SELECT AI integrations via the APEX_AI package: verify AI Provider credential configuration and endpoint settings if they referenced the deprecated inference operations.
APEXREST view: The OCI deprecated API shutdown is a signal for enterprise APEX teams to immediately verify OCI Generative AI configuration in their AI Agent integrations. The Chat API supports all previous use cases with greater interface consistency. Consultation: [email protected]

What's new: CNBC published on June 23, 2026 an analysis of Oracle's annual report: over the 12 months to May 2026, Oracle eliminated 21,000 positions — nearly 13% of its workforce (from 162,000 to 141,000 FTE). Oracle explicitly cited AI in the filing: "The adoption and deployment of AI technologies have resulted, and may continue to result, in reductions to our workforce." Restructuring costs: $1.8B (vs. $374M the prior year). CapEx surged 162% to $55.7B — free cash flow turned negative at -$23.7B due to large-scale GPU investments in OCI. Context: reductions were concentrated in sales, marketing, and support — OCI engineering and APEX Product Management were not affected; Oracle APEX 26.1 and AI Database 26ai shipped on schedule.

Oracle Defence Tech Summit Brussels 2026 (June 25): 10 New Partners in the Oracle Defense Ecosystem — AI Intelligence, Cyber, Underwater Robotics, and Secure Mobile Communications on OCI; Summit Confirms OCI as NATO-Grade Sovereign Cloud Platform for Mission-Critical Operations (oracle.com/europe, June 25, 2026)

What's new: On June 25, 2026, Oracle held the Defence Tech Summit in Brussels and announced the third cohort of the Oracle Defense Ecosystem — 10 new companies with mission-critical solutions for US and NATO allies: Chariot Defense (power systems for tactical edge missions), Legion Intelligence (AI tools for defense teams), Marlin Intelligence (underwater robotics), Quori (AI-powered operational intelligence), HPO Technologies, Resaro, Revobeam, Tactiql, Two Delta, and Unplugged (secure mobile communications). The Oracle Defense Ecosystem connects OCI distributed cloud and AI infrastructure with a network of emerging defense tech companies to accelerate the path from prototype to mission impact in a secure environment. Summit priorities: data sovereignty, edge cloud resilience, and alliance-grade solutions for NATO and US partners. Context: the Summit took place 15 days after Oracle's record Q4 FY2026 results ($19.2B revenue, OCI +93%) — Defense Ecosystem expansion is part of Oracle's $40B+ OCI CAPEX strategy. Oracle also made a dedicated participation page available for the Ukrainian market (oracle.com/ua/defense-intelligence/defense-tech-summit/plan/).
APEXREST view: The Oracle Defence Tech Summit in Brussels confirms OCI's position as a NATO-grade sovereign cloud platform for allied mission-critical operations.

Baker McKenzie Summer 2026: Ukraine Martial Law Extended to August 2, 2026 — Regulatory Framework for Digital Products Remains Under Wartime Rules; Draft Law No. 13505 Continues Parliamentary Process (bakermckenzie.com, June 9, 2026)

Situation: Baker McKenzie published the Summer 2026 Edition of "Ukrainian Laws in Wartime" (June 9, 2026). Key facts: Martial law extended to August 2, 2026 — with no cap on the number of further extensions. The wartime legal regime covers property relations (forced expropriation of Russian-resident assets), employment law (remote work arrangements), and financial reporting (deadline extended by 3 months after martial law ends). The direct 1C/BAS ban (SSSCIP registry from January 8, 2026) operates in parallel: Draft Law No. 13505 (fines up to 2% of annual revenue) has not yet been passed but continues its parliamentary process. Organizations delaying migration face two parallel risk tracks: the general wartime regulatory regime plus specific sanctions for Russian-supply-chain software.
APEXREST view: Extending martial law to August 2026 does not remove the regulatory risk of using 1C/BAS.

Ukraine ERP Alternatives Market 2026: Odoo Dominates SMB Migration, Oracle APEX Targets Enterprise; 1C Developer Ecosystem Collapse Accelerates Exit from Sanctioned Software (odoo-lab.com, 2026)

Situation: Market analysis from odoo-lab.com for 2026 shows Odoo emerging as the dominant replacement platform for the SMB and mid-market segment migrating from 1C/BAS in Ukraine. Migration ROI for SMB reaches 150–200% over two years based on 2026 implementation data. In parallel, the 1C developer ecosystem is collapsing: junior developers no longer learn a platform tied to a sanctioned company; senior 1C developers are retraining or emigrating. By end of 2026, the share of SMBs still running sanctioned software is projected to drop below 20% — driven primarily by banking pressure and procurement requirements. For the enterprise segment (manufacturing, distribution, financial services, public sector) — SAP, Oracle, and Microsoft Dynamics remain the primary platforms due to enterprise security, AI capabilities, and scalability requirements.
APEXREST view: The market split is natural: Odoo is the right platform for micro- and small businesses without complex requirements. Oracle APEX on Oracle AI Database 26ai serves organizations requiring enterprise-grade security, AI Agents (APEX 26.1), SELECT AI, Autonomous Database, and OCI-native infrastructure.

BDO Ukraine: Legal Guide for Businesses Under the 1C and BAS Ban — Draft Law No. 13505 Introduces Fines Up to 2% of Annual Revenue; SSSCIP Registry from January 8, 2026 Covers 1C, BAS, and Bitrix24 (bdo.ua, 2026)

Situation: BDO Ukraine published a detailed legal guide for businesses under the 1C and BAS ban. Legal framework: the compromised software registry of the State Service of Special Communications (SSSCIP), published January 8, 2026, covers 1C, BAS, Bitrix24, and dozens of other Russian-origin products. NSDC sanctions ban the sale, support, and distribution of the entire BAS product line and classic 1C. Draft Law No. 13505, registered in the Verkhovna Rada, would introduce fines of up to 2% of annual revenue for use of sanctioned software — a concrete regulatory risk. BDO's four-step plan: 1) Order to Audit Information Systems (protective documentation for regulators and banking partners); 2) Switch all 1C/BAS databases to 'read-only' + Order Declaring Software as Archived; 3) Software Selection Protocol; 4) Comfort Letter for banks and counterparties confirming active transition. Market projection: by end of 2026, the share of SMBs still on sanctioned software is expected to fall below 20% — driven by banking pressure and procurement requirements.

Oracle Fusion Cloud 26B: 22 New Agentic Applications for Finance, HR, SCM, and CX — Security Command Center for ERP, Design-to-Source Workspace, and 10 Supply Chain Agents; Oracle Scales Enterprise AI Across the Entire Fusion Apps Suite (blogs.oracle.com/fusioninsider, June 2026)

What's new: Oracle Fusion Cloud 26B (rolling release May–August 2026) introduces 22 new Agentic Applications across the Fusion Apps Suite: Finance/ERP — Security Command Center for ERP (agentic monitoring and response to security events in Fusion ERP); SCM — 10 agentic apps, including Design-to-Source Workspace (agent coordinates the full cycle from business requirement to supplier), Sourcing Command Center, and Cost Accounting Close Workspace; HCM and CX. Architectural principle: an agent aggregates information and recommendations across all functional areas in a unified UI → reasons across domains → executes actions without switching between systems. Examples: AI agent reads supplier emails and automatically creates ASNs and receipts; detects inventory imbalances and supply disruptions; responds to order exceptions in-context. Fusion 26B is the first large-scale production rollout of Oracle Fusion Agentic Applications following the CloudWorld 2025 platform announcement.
APEXREST view: Oracle Fusion 26B Agentic Applications demonstrates Oracle's enterprise AI strategy at full scale — the entire Fusion Suite (Finance, HCM, SCM, CX) is gaining agentic capabilities within a single Oracle Cloud platform. For enterprise CTOs evaluating Oracle Cloud as a strategic platform: Oracle AI Database 26ai + Oracle APEX + Oracle Fusion form a unified enterprise AI stack — from core database to low-code ERP applications to enterprise SaaS — all on OCI.

Oracle APEX 26.1: Two New AI Agents Reference Posts — Programmatic PL/SQL Path (APEX_AI Package Inline Tool Definitions) and Full CRM AI Agent Reference Implementation with Multiple Tool Types and Orchestration Pattern (blogs.oracle.com/apex, May–June 2026)

What's new: Oracle published two practical technical posts on AI Agents in Oracle APEX 26.1. 1) Build Ad-hoc AI Agents Entirely in PL/SQL (May 30, 2026): APEX 26.1 extends the APEX_AI package — AI Tools are defined inline in PL/SQL code and passed directly to APEX_AI.CHAT or APEX_AI.GENERATE without Application Builder UI and without declarative metadata. Suitable for backend automation pipelines, scheduled PL/SQL jobs with AI reasoning, and gradual AI augmentation of existing PL/SQL business logic layers. 2) Build a CRM AI Agent with Oracle APEX: complete CRM reference implementation — AI Agent with Customer Lookup, Interaction History, Update Customer, and Notification tools; orchestration pattern in a multi-step reasoning chain; context-aware execution points in an APEX page. Architectural separation: LLM reasoning → declarative tool definitions (Application Builder) → data access (Oracle AI Database 26ai).
APEXREST view: Two architectural paths for AI Agents in APEX 26.1 cover different enterprise needs: declarative (Application Builder) — for most enterprise production scenarios; programmatic PL/SQL (APEX_AI package) — for custom automation and data pipeline tasks. The CRM reference implementation is the most practical starting point for enterprise APEX teams planning their first production AI Agent deployment. For organizations building Oracle APEX replacements for legacy ERP: the reference demonstrates enterprise-grade AI orchestration without custom frameworks. Consultation: [email protected]

OpenAI on Oracle Cloud: OCI Customers Can Now Apply Universal Credits to GPT-4o and Codex — Enterprise AI Through Existing Oracle Commitment, No Separate OpenAI Contract (Oracle Marketplace Blog, June 10, 2026)

What's new: On June 10, 2026, Oracle and OpenAI announced that OCI enterprise customers can apply existing Oracle Universal Credits toward access to OpenAI frontier models (GPT-4o, GPT-4.1) and Codex, without a separate OpenAI contract. Organizations with Oracle Enterprise Agreements or Annual Flex Commitments can add OpenAI API consumption to their existing purchasing workflow — removing additional vendor relationships and separate procurement cycles. For Oracle APEX AI Agents and SELECT AI on OCI: APEX 26.1 AI Agents gain an additional commercial path to OpenAI models alongside the OCI Generative AI Service (Cohere, Meta Llama). Broad rollout is expected within weeks of announcement. Context: built on the broader OpenAI–Oracle partnership (September 2025, $300B / 5-year AI infrastructure agreement).
APEXREST view: Universal Credits removes the biggest practical barrier to enterprise AI adoption — fragmented vendor relationships and parallel procurement cycles. Oracle APEX AI Agents + SELECT AI + OCI Generative AI (now including OpenAI via Universal Credits) = enterprise-grade AI within a single Oracle cloud commitment. Relevant for organizations replacing legacy ERP systems on Oracle APEX + OCI. Consultation: [email protected]

Microsoft–Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Talks Reported Collapsed: $3B+ Lease Deal Failed Over FISMA Certification and Hypervisor Disputes — Oracle Disputes Report Details, Active Partnership Continues (Business Insider / Yahoo Finance, June 16, 2026)

Situation: On June 16, 2026, Business Insider reported that Microsoft and Oracle ended negotiations on a potential $3B+ deal for Microsoft to lease OCI capacity for AI workloads (Copilot, Azure AI). Reported reasons for the collapse: OCI public cloud lacks the FISMA certification level required for Microsoft's US government workloads; disagreements over hypervisor isolation and encryption key custody; unresolved incident response escalation path differences. Oracle disputed the report's details: "Microsoft is both an OCI partner and customer and we have a tremendously collaborative and fruitful partnership." The existing Oracle Database@Azure partnership was not affected. Market context: Oracle announced $40B+ CAPEX for AI infrastructure and is reporting accelerating cloud revenue growth.
APEXREST view: This highlights the competitive tension between OCI and hyperscalers for enterprise AI workloads. For enterprises building Oracle APEX + AI Database 26ai + OCI as a unified replacement for legacy ERP: single-stack Oracle provides data sovereignty and unified governance without multi-vendor cloud coordination overhead.

Oracle APEX 26.1 Map Region: Vector Tile Layer Support for Large Spatial Datasets — Load Only the Current Viewport Instead of the Full Dataset; Scale to Tens of Thousands of Features Without Degradation (blogs.oracle.com, June 2026)

What's new: Oracle published an overview of new Map Region capabilities in Oracle APEX 26.1. The headline feature: vector tile layer support for large spatial datasets — Map Region now loads only the data needed for the current viewport and zoom level, rather than transmitting the full spatial dataset to the browser. Technical implementation: Map Region uses the mdsys.sdo_util.get_vectortile() database function to generate PBF (Protocolbuffer Binary Format) vector tiles directly in Oracle AI Database 26ai; the client issues parallel AJAX requests only for visible tiles. Result: scales to tens of thousands of spatial features without performance degradation. Requirements: Oracle AI Database 26ai (Oracle Spatial) or OCI Spatial and Graph.
APEXREST view: Map Region vector tiles are a strategic platform-level feature for enterprise APEX applications with geospatial data: logistics and route planning, real estate and construction site management, infrastructure networks. Oracle APEX 26.1 delivers enterprise GIS capabilities at the platform level without third-party GIS software or additional licensing costs. Consultation: [email protected]

Oracle APEX 26.1 NL2IR: Natural Language in Interactive Reports Without SQL Generation — AI Applies Declarative Filters, Sorting, and Pivot Analytics Within the APEX Security Model (blogs.oracle.com, June 2026)

What's new: Oracle published an overview of Natural Language to Interactive Report (NL2IR) in Oracle APEX 26.1: users type a natural language request and the AI applies standard declarative IR settings (filters, sorting, breaks, aggregations, pivots, charts, highlights) within the existing report definition and data access rules. Critically: APEX does not generate or execute AI-generated SQL — instead it produces declarative IR settings without leaving the security model. Every applied setting renders as a visible, editable, removable chip. Additional IR 26.1 enhancements: declarative row selection, column-level CSS classes, improved rendering for large complex reports. Requirements: a Generative AI Service configured in the APEX application. KScope26 (June 14–18, Denver): NL2IR is among the key APEX 26.1 production topics at the conference.
APEXREST view: NL2IR is a foundational AI innovation for enterprise business analytics — natural language as the interface to business data while fully preserving the enterprise security model without SQL generation risk. For organizations migrating from legacy ERP: this class of conversational analytics interface is simply not available in legacy systems, and Oracle APEX 26.1 delivers it at the platform level without custom AI code.

AmCham Ukraine: Sale of 1C in Ukraine Will Be Banned Completely — Draft Law No. 10186 Targets Full Distribution Ban; New Regulatory Escalation Beyond the Existing Use Prohibition (chamber.ua, 2026)

What's new: The American Chamber of Commerce in Ukraine (AmCham Ukraine) published an analysis of a new legislative step: Draft Law No. 10186 proposes a complete ban on the sale of software developed using code written in the Russian language — targeting 1C at the distribution level, beyond the existing use prohibition (SSSCIP, January 8, 2026). Current mandatory ban scope: government authorities, military formations, state-owned and municipal enterprises, and critical infrastructure operators, including private companies in energy, logistics, and healthcare. Draft Law No. 13505: administrative penalties of up to 2% of annual turnover for commercial companies outside the critical infrastructure category. Practical risk today: official 1C updates are blocked — any changes to VAT invoice formats, reporting forms, or tax rates must be implemented manually with State Tax Service audit exposure. ERP voucher program closed February 28, 2026. AmCham: delay in starting the transition significantly increases operational and regulatory risk for 2026–2027.
APEXREST view: A complete distribution ban on 1C is the decisive signal — organizations still delaying migration face a near-term scenario where new licenses, updates, and legal support for 1C will simply be unavailable. Oracle APEX + AI Database 26ai + OCI is an enterprise replacement with full business process customization, EU-compliant infrastructure, and no single-vendor software dependency.

AmCham Ukraine: Construction Sector and the 1C/BAS-to-ERP Transition — Industry Guidance for Companies Participating in Ukraine's Reconstruction (chamber.ua, 2026)

Situation: The American Chamber of Commerce in Ukraine (AmCham Ukraine), together with the School of Construction Project Management PRO PM, hosted a webinar titled "WITHOUT 1C in Construction" and published guidance for construction sector enterprises. Context: the construction sector is strategically critical for Ukraine's reconstruction — attracting foreign investment requires modern IT infrastructure that meets international reporting standards. AmCham recommends starting the transition now, without waiting for the ban to extend to the private sector. The ERP transition voucher program closed February 28, 2026 — no subsidized migration path remains and regulatory risk is rising. For large internationally-oriented companies, AmCham recommends Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&SCM; for smaller enterprises — domestic or specialized solutions. Construction is one of the first sectors where AmCham has publicly issued specific ERP recommendations in the context of the 1C ban and reconstruction planning.
APEXREST view: The construction sector has some of the most complex ERP customization requirements — project accounting by construction site, cost estimation documentation, building materials and inventory tracking, subcontract management, work completion records, and BIM integration. Oracle APEX + AI Database 26ai on OCI provides full customization of industry-specific processes without Fusion Apps licensing constraints, with EU-compliant infrastructure critical for attracting international construction investment into Ukraine's reconstruction.

Oracle Q4 FY2026 Actual Results: OCI +93% to $5.8B, Cloud Revenue $9.9B (+47%), RPO $638B (+$85B in Quarter); EPS $2.11 Beats Consensus; ORCL -10% After Hours on $40B Capital Raise Plan (June 10, 2026)

What's new: Oracle reported record Q4 FY2026 results after NYSE close on June 10, 2026: revenue $19.2B (+21% YoY, above $19.1B consensus); OCI IaaS $5.8B (+93%) — significantly above market expectations of ~$5.0B; total cloud revenues $9.9B (+47%); non-GAAP EPS $2.11 (+24%), beating the $1.96 consensus by $0.15. RPO grew by $85B in Q4 alone to a record $638B (+363% YoY): $67B in new AI infrastructure contracts signed in the quarter (predominantly prepaid or bring-your-own-hardware structures). Full FY2026: revenue $67.4B (+17%), cloud $34B (+39%), operating cash flow $32B (+54%). Free cash flow was negative (-$23.7B) due to capex acceleration ($39B+ in FY2026). Oracle plans to raise $40B in debt and equity for FY2027 (including $20B at-the-market equity). FY2027 $90B revenue target reaffirmed. ORCL shares fell approximately 10% in after-hours trading on the scale of capital requirements, despite the record results.
APEXREST view: Q4 FY2026 confirms OCI has reached hyperscale tier — +93% at $5.8B quarterly revenue. RPO $638B represents $638B in committed customer obligations: the financial validation of Oracle's platform bet for the next decade. Negative FCF is not weakness — Oracle is investing $39B+ capex to sustain the +90%+ OCI growth pace. For enterprise CTOs evaluating Oracle APEX + OCI on a 5–10 year horizon: Q4 FY2026 confirms vendor-level platform stability and infrastructure commitment. Consultation: [email protected]

Oracle APEX 26.1: Security Hardening — Full CSP Compliance Without unsafe-hashes, Dynamic OAuth Scopes for REST, and Workspace SMTP Controls (June 8, 2026)

What's new: Oracle APEX 26.1 achieves full Content Security Policy compliance: unsafe-hashes and unsafe-inline are removed — all internal inline styles replaced with class-based alternatives, dynamic behaviors refactored to external scripts or nonce-based execution. Enterprise APEX applications can now exclude unsafe-inline and unsafe-hashes from CSP headers without browser warnings or functional degradation. Dynamic OAuth Scopes: Web Credentials for OAuth2 Client Credentials now support token scope at invocation time — APEX fetches the token for the required scope without separate credential sets per scope. New OAuth flows: OAuth2 Password Flow, Refresh Token Support for Client Credentials, Token Authentication Method selection. REST Data Sources add support for signed assertions and password flows for enterprise IdP integrations. Unlimited attributes for Authorization, Authentication, and REST Source plug-ins — full flexibility for custom security plug-ins. Workspace-level SMTP Controls for email governance. Fusion Extensions security improvements for APEX extensions over Oracle Fusion SaaS.
APEXREST view: APEX 26.1 security hardening closes typical security audit findings (CSP, OAuth, email governance) in financial, government, and healthcare APEX applications without custom security overlays. For enterprise teams migrating from legacy ERP: APEX 26.1 passes corporate security audits out of the box — significantly reducing compliance overhead for organizations with strict CISO requirements. Dynamic OAuth Scopes simplify REST integrations without increasing credential complexity. Consultation: [email protected]

Oracle APEX 26.1: Workflow Operations and Task Management Enhancements — Lifecycle APIs, Authorization Schemes for Group Task Assignment, and Runtime State Portability (June 7, 2026)

What's new: The Oracle APEX Blog published the next post in its post-GA 26.1 series: enhanced workflow and task management capabilities. New public APIs for controlled deletion of workflow and task instances — cleanup without direct SQL access to system tables. Export/import runtime state: a workflow instance can be moved between development, staging, and production without losing execution state. API for updating activity due dates in running workflows — changing deadlines at runtime without modifying the workflow definition. Authorization Schemes for task participants: instead of hardcoded individual users, tasks can be assigned to groups through existing Authorization Schemes. API to exclude specific participants from tasks at runtime and redirect Information Requests to another user when the original assignee is unavailable. Complements Parallel Flow and Generate Text with AI (previous post, June 6) — completing the enterprise-grade workflow automation stack.
APEXREST view: Together with Parallel Flow, Generate Text with AI, and Ad-hoc AI Agents in PL/SQL, these workflow capabilities form a complete enterprise BPM stack in Oracle APEX 26.1 — lifecycle management, AI activities, parallel execution, and runtime state portability without separate middleware. For enterprise teams migrating approval workflows and BPM logic from legacy ERP (1C/BAS): APEX 26.1 Workflow is a complete replacement for the legacy BPM module without rewriting on a separate workflow engine.

Oracle APEX Data Reporter: Self-Service Business Analytics Without SQL or App Builder — Administrators Define Trusted Datasets, Business Users Build and Publish Reports Independently (June 7, 2026)

What's new: The Oracle APEX Blog published an overview of Data Reporter — a new APEX 26.1 capability. Architecture: the administrator defines datasets (curated collections of tables/views) at the workspace level; business users can only access those datasets, not the full schema. Self-service flow: select data source → configure columns → apply filters → choose layout — no SQL, no App Builder. APEX Assistant in Data Reporter generates SQL from a natural-language description, including JOINs across multiple tables. Completed reports are published to a Reporting Environment — a separate APEX application for business analytics. Oracle is publishing a 3-part blog series: Part 1 — architecture; Part 2 — setup; Part 3 — Managing, Updating, and Moving the Reporting Environment.
APEXREST view: Data Reporter addresses a core ERP migration requirement: in legacy 1C/BAS, business users could independently configure standard reports — Data Reporter delivers equivalent or better self-service reporting capability in Oracle APEX without developer involvement for each new report. For enterprise teams replacing legacy ERP: Data Reporter reduces time-to-insight for the business and development team load in production. Consultation on APEX 26.1: [email protected]

Oracle APEX 26.1: Parallel Flow and Generate Text with AI in Workflow — Concurrent Branch Execution and Native OCI GenAI Activities in Enterprise Automation Without Custom PL/SQL Code

What's new: The Oracle APEX Blog published a technical deep-dive on two new Workflow capabilities in APEX 26.1. Parallel Flow: multiple workflow branches execute simultaneously — the runtime processes branches in parallel and advances to the next activity once all branches complete; for enterprise workflows where independent business processes ran sequentially, Parallel Flow reduces elapsed time without redesigning logic. Generate Text with AI: a new workflow activity that directly invokes OCI Generative AI from within the workflow — LLM classification, text generation, or decision-making as part of an automated process without PL/SQL. Runtime enhancements: workflows suspended during an APEX upgrade automatically resume from the point of interruption without manual intervention; multi-tenancy: Tenant ID isolation in Workflow Console and Task List. New public APIs: controlled deletion of workflow/task instances; export/import of runtime instances across environments; updating activity due dates in running workflows. Published as part of the Oracle APEX Blog post-GA enablement series.
APEXREST view: Parallel Flow and Generate Text with AI are practical enterprise workflow automation capabilities for companies migrating business processes from legacy ERP (1C/BAS) to Oracle APEX. Parallel Flow replaces sequential processing of independent processes in legacy ERP; Generate Text with AI embeds AI classification and content generation directly in workflow without separate PL/SQL wrappers. Together with Ad-hoc AI Agents in PL/SQL and OIC Agentic AI, this completes the full AI-native automation stack in Oracle APEX 26.1 — without legacy middleware or custom integration layers. For enterprise teams designing migration architecture from 1C/BAS: workflow automation is the central layer — business logic, approval processes, and automated data flows migrate here.

Ukraine Draft Law No. 13505: 2% Annual Turnover Fine for Using 1C/BAS — Parliament Committee Approved in First Reading; SSSCIP Ban Already in Effect for Government Bodies and Critical Infrastructure

Situation: DBS and IT Ukraine Association published analysis of Draft Law No. 13505 — 'On the Prohibition of the Use and Distribution of Hostile Software Products and Hostile IT Tools'. Key provisions: a fine of 2% of annual turnover for enterprises that use, service, or distribute prohibited software including 1C and BAS; a phased withdrawal for the private sector with a compliance deadline of 2030; the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Digital Transformation recommended adoption in the first reading (October 2025). Simultaneously: SSSCIP already published an open register of prohibited software on January 9, 2026 (27 products including 1C and BAS) — the ban is already in effect for government bodies, military formations, and critical infrastructure operators. Scale: approximately 75% of Ukrainian companies still use 1C or its derivatives (BAS). Next step: adoption in the first reading at the Verkhovna Rada plenary session will set the official compliance timeline for the private sector.
APEXREST view: Draft Law No. 13505 transforms the ERP decision for 75% of Ukrainian businesses: a 2% annual turnover fine is not an operational cost — it is a balance-sheet risk. For CFOs: on revenue of UAH 100M the fine equals UAH 2M/year, excluding audit and compliance costs. The risk is not hypothetical — the ban for government bodies and critical infrastructure is already in effect; the private sector will receive a compliance deadline upon adoption. Oracle APEX + Oracle AI Database 26ai is the only platform where a business receives a fully custom ERP without functional licensing restrictions alongside the enterprise AI stack (AI Vector Search, SELECT AI, APEX AI Agents) — on an EU-compliant platform with zero dependency on sanctioned vendors or jurisdictions.

What's new: June 5–6, 2026, Kyiv — Brave CFO Gathering 2026 opened the XXIV Ukrainian CFO Forum season (AmCham Ukraine, CFO Club). Key agenda items: ERP transformation and migration from 1C/BAS to international management platforms; AI and finance function automation; private capital and IFI financing; international business expansion and risk management. Attendees: 200+ CFOs, CEOs, board members, and business owners from NOVA Group, Rozetka-EVO, COMFY, Biosphere Corporation, NIBULON, Agrotrade Group, EBRD, Unicorn Capital, Innoware, IT-Enterprise, and others. Forum position: the 2026 ERP decision defines enterprise architecture for the next 7–10 years; ERP systems are the foundation of organizational resilience in high-uncertainty operating conditions.
APEXREST view: Brave CFO Gathering 2026 confirms that 1C/BAS migration is now a board-level strategic decision — Ukraine's leading CFOs and CEOs are treating ERP transformation as the defining enterprise architecture choice for 2026, not an IT task. Oracle APEX + Oracle AI Database 26ai is the only platform in the enterprise ERP category where the customer receives a fully custom ERP with no functional licensing restrictions alongside the enterprise AI stack (AI Vector Search, SELECT AI, APEX AI Agents) — on an EU-compliant platform with zero dependency on sanctioned vendors or jurisdictions.

Oracle 30,000 Layoffs Enter Final Phase by June 15, 2026: Largest-Ever Workforce Reduction Frees $8–10B/Year for GPU Infrastructure, OCI, and Stargate Partnership with OpenAI

What's new: On June 1, 2026, Oracle confirmed the final phase of the largest workforce reduction in its 49-year corporate history: ~30,000 employees (~18% of the 190,000 global headcount) received separation notices on March 31, 2026; affected employees are signing agreements with a deadline of June 15, 2026. Co-CEO Safra Catz: "a generational reallocation of capital from people-intensive consulting toward GPU-intensive AI infrastructure"; Larry Ellison: "We are choosing the chips." The layoffs free $8–10B per year for GPU capacity — part of $50B capex FY2026. Oracle is the primary cloud partner in Stargate (OpenAI + SoftBank, ~10 GW AI compute, contracted through 2032). Simultaneously: Q3 FY2026 revenue $17.2B (+22% YoY), cloud +44%, RPO backlog $553B (+325% YoY) — record growth.
APEXREST view: Oracle's 30,000 layoffs are a structural capital reallocation, not a sign of vendor instability — Oracle is trading headcount for GPU capacity while reporting record revenue growth and a $553B backlog. For enterprise CTOs evaluating Oracle APEX + OCI on a multi-year horizon: vendor stability is determined by RPO backlog ($553B, primarily AI contracts through 2030+) and infrastructure investment pace ($50B capex), not by headcount. Scaling compute capital while reducing people-intensive operations is the defining AI-era strategy of hyperscale cloud operators. Consultation: [email protected]

OCI Generative AI API Deprecation: June 26, 2026 Deadline — GenerateText and SummarizeText APIs Retiring, 24 Days to Migrate Oracle APEX PL/SQL Integrations to Chat API

What's new: Oracle has set a final deadline: from June 26, 2026, the legacy GenerateText (POST /actions/generateText) and SummarizeText (POST /actions/summarizeText) inference APIs in OCI Generative AI will be fully unavailable. All OCI GenAI pretrained foundational models in on-demand serving mode that supported these endpoints are being retired. Deadline: 24 days from today. At risk: custom PL/SQL web service calls or APEX REST Data Sources written before APEX 26.1 GA or before updating APEX AI Configurations. Replacement: Chat API (POST /actions/chat) — supported by all current and future OCI GenAI models without functional limitations.
APEXREST view: The June 26 deadline is an operational risk for APEX teams with legacy OCI GenAI integrations — the GenerateText/SummarizeText deprecation is a breaking change for production APEX applications using these endpoints. Recommended: audit OCI GenAI endpoint usage in all production APEX applications now, before KScope26 (June 14–18). The Chat API is a full functional replacement without architectural changes.

DBS: Comparative Analysis of ERP Systems in Ukraine 2026 — the Post-1C/BAS Market Comparing SAP, Dynamics 365, Odoo, and Oracle APEX for a 7–10 Year Strategic Decision

Situation: Digital Business Services (DBS) published a "Comparative Analysis of ERP Systems in Ukraine (2026)" — a detailed review of replacement platforms for 1C/BAS under NSDC sanctions and SSSCIP prohibitions. What the market is seeking: an enterprise solution with full Ukraine-specific localization (primary documents, VAT, payroll, statutory reporting under Ukrainian standards and IFRS), functional coverage of core business processes (HR, accounting, warehouse, CRM, manufacturing), a sanctions-compliant vendor, and manageable TCO. Key platforms evaluated by DBS: SAP Business One — structured and internationally established, but high implementation cost; Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central — ERP within the Microsoft ecosystem, subscription model; Odoo ERP — open-source with a low entry threshold, limited enterprise-specific coverage; Oracle APEX — fully custom ERP on Oracle AI Database 26ai with no functional licensing restrictions. 2026 market trend: the Ukrainian market is shifting from individual "accounting tools" to a unified enterprise management ecosystem — the 2026 decision shapes a company's IT architecture for the next 7–10 years. Market context: over 70% of Ukrainian companies have not yet migrated (IT Ukraine Association), with deadlines of September 1, 2026 for the state sector and December 1, 2026 for critical infrastructure.
APEXREST view: The DBS analysis confirms the market is no longer looking for "a similar 1C alternative at a similar price" — it is choosing a strategic ERP platform for the next decade. Oracle APEX versus SAP, Dynamics, and Odoo has a fundamental difference: Oracle APEX + AI Database 26ai is the only platform where the customer receives a fully custom ERP without functional licensing restrictions and simultaneously the complete enterprise AI stack — AI Vector Search, SELECT AI, APEX AI Agents — at no additional licensing cost. SAP, Dynamics, and Odoo offer packaged solutions with customization layers. Oracle APEX offers a platform for building your own ERP precisely matched to your business processes. For enterprises with unique requirements in manufacturing, logistics, or finance: Oracle APEX closes the gap without the compromise of "not included in this edition."

Regulation

Three Regulatory Layers of the 1C/BAS Ban in Ukraine: NSDC Sanctions, SSSCIP List, and Draft Law 13505 — Legal Status for Private Businesses as of May 2026

Situation: The legal status of the 1C/BAS prohibition operates across three parallel regulatory layers: 1) NSDC sanctions (active since 2022 for 1C, since September 2024 for BAS) — directly prohibit use and new procurement; unconditionally apply to the state sector and critical infrastructure; 2) Open SSSCIP register (January 9, 2026) — 27+ prohibited products covering the full 1C and BAS product lines, applying to actual operational use, not only procurement; 3) Draft Law No. 13505 — transition period for private business until 2030, up to 2% turnover fine, not yet enacted. Critical practical point: NSDC sanctions and the SSSCIP list are already active law — individually sufficient to create compliance risk during routine inspections, without Draft Law 13505. Approximately 75% of Ukrainian companies continue using 1C or BAS; BAS franchisees confirmed the effective suspension of new license sales to the state sector from April 2026.
APEXREST view: The three-layer regulatory system means private businesses already face real compliance risk today — independent of Draft Law 13505 status. Migrating now means a planned, controlled transition before the December 1, 2026 critical infrastructure deadline, rather than a forced emergency migration under pressure.

AI Agent for Oracle Forms-to-APEX Modernization: Oracle Publishes Structured APEXlang Migration Workflow in VS Code — from Forms XML Analysis to Traceability Matrix and .apx Artifacts

What's new: Oracle published 'Transforming Oracle Forms to Oracle APEX in the AI Era: AI Agent' — a structured agent workflow for automating key Oracle Forms modernization steps in APEX 26.1. The agent (oracle-forms-migration.agent.md in VS Code, using Claude, Codex, or another LLM) performs: Forms XML analysis → business logic and trigger identification → database dependency validation in the target schema → reusable logic extraction → APEXlang .apx artifact generation → traceability_matrix.md. The Traceability Matrix maps Forms logic, business intent, database objects, and APEX implementation targets in a single document. The agent is repeatable: it lives in the project repository alongside artifacts and runs independently for each Forms module without reconstructing prompts from scratch. Oracle also published 'MCP + AI: Helping You Modernize Your Oracle Forms Apps to Oracle APEX' — an MCP-connected AI assistant for Forms application analysis directly from the IDE. Both tools address different Forms analysis scenarios within the same modernization strategy.
APEXREST view: The Oracle Forms AI Agent workflow is the first structured, repeatable approach to automated Forms repository analysis. For APEX teams with large Forms codebases: the agent compresses the analysis and migration artifact preparation phase significantly. For enterprises with an inherited Forms layer alongside legacy ERP: AI-driven Forms XML analysis produces a complete legacy logic inventory without manually reviewing each module. Oracle now provides AI tooling for both modernization directions: Forms → APEX via APEXlang agent, and Forms → APEX via MCP+AI. Migration strategy consultation: [email protected]

Oracle CSPU May 28, 2026: First Monthly Critical Security Patch Update — 4 Days for On-Premises Oracle APEX and Oracle Database Teams to Prepare

What's new: Oracle launches its first monthly Critical Security Patch Update (CSPU) on May 28, 2026 — a new monthly security update cadence supplementing the quarterly CPU release cycle. Schedule: May 28 → June 16 → August 18. On OCI (Autonomous Database, APEX Service): CSPUs are applied automatically with zero downtime and no IT team involvement. For on-premises Oracle Database and Oracle APEX: each CSPU requires a manual test-and-apply cycle with DBA and APEX administrator involvement. Root cause: Oracle introduced CSPUs in response to growing AI-detected vulnerability volumes — AI agents are automating exploit development against known Oracle weaknesses, compressing the attack window significantly. For enterprises evaluating platform security: monthly CSPU cadence is an important operational compliance factor for on-premises Oracle APEX deployments.
APEXREST view: The May 28 CSPU is the practical deadline for on-premises APEX teams — a patching test plan must be in place by end of this week. For OCI teams: CSPUs are automatic and free — zero-overhead security maintenance as a standard Autonomous Database benefit. For enterprises migrating from legacy ERP to Oracle APEX: OCI deployment automatically eliminates all manual security maintenance at no additional cost. Architecture consultation: [email protected]

Deadlines in force: September 1, 2026 — government and state-sector institutions; December 1, 2026 — critical infrastructure (banking, energy, transport). NSDC sanctions are already blocking new 1C/BAS license purchases and official support. Draft Law No. 13505 includes a transition period for private businesses until 2030, but existing NSDC sanctions already create compliance inspection risk. Enterprises deferring the decision to Q4 2026 face a materially higher risk of emergency migration — data migration gaps, process errors, and compliance exposure during the transition.
APEXREST view: 70% market coverage is not a niche — it is the mainstream. Most companies are navigating the same challenge: finding an enterprise alternative that covers industry-specific business processes without the compromises of a packaged product. Oracle APEX with Oracle AI Database 26ai is the custom ERP platform with zero dependency on sanctioned vendors and no functional licensing restrictions. Enterprises starting now have a window for a planned, controlled migration before the December 2026 deadline. Migration consultation: [email protected]

Oracle APEX 26.1 AI Agents in Practice: First Official CRM Tutorial — Agent Analyzes Deals, Gets Confirmation, and Takes Action in a Single Conversation

What's new: Oracle published its first complete CRM tutorial for AI Agents in APEX 26.1, authored by Chaitanya Koratamaddi and Toufiq Mohammed (Oracle APEX Product Management). Scenario: a sales manager asks "Which of my deals needs attention this week?" — the AI Agent (any configured LLM: Claude, GPT, or other) queries CRM tables, identifies stalled deals, proposes specific next steps, requests user confirmation, and executes the approved action in the database with a full audit trail — all within a single conversation. The tutorial covers all four APEX AI Tool types: data retrieval, user confirmation, database write, and reporting. Governance: the agent executes only explicitly permitted Tools, with no access to data or actions outside the APEX application boundary.
APEXREST view: This tutorial demonstrates the fundamental difference between APEX 26.1 AI Agents and conventional chatbots: the agent doesn't just respond with text — it executes real database operations with confirmation and a full audit trail, remaining fully under developer control and Oracle APEX governance. For enterprises migrating from legacy ERP: the same agent architecture applies to document approval workflows, purchase order processing, and automated reporting — without separate BPM tools and without the risk of unauthorized changes.

Oracle APEX AI Application Generator: AI Agents Generate Production APEX Applications via APEXlang — SQLcl 26.1.2 with Skills Sync and GitHub APEXlang Skills

What's new: Oracle launched Oracle APEX AI Application Generator — a purpose-built platform for generating Oracle APEX applications using AI agents (Claude, Codex, and others) through APEXlang specifications. SQLcl 26.1.2: the new `skills sync` command fetches official APEXlang Skills from Oracle's GitHub — the AI agent understands .apx file format, APIs, and Oracle APEX best practices directly from the authoritative source; `apex validate` checks .apx file syntax in command line and CI/CD pipelines. Practical AI workflow: developer describes a page or component in natural language → AI agent (Claude Desktop, GitHub Copilot, VS Code Copilot) generates an APEXlang .apx file → SQLcl validate → import into APEX without using the GUI. Oracle's description: APEXlang is an open specification language enabling developers and AI agents to generate secure, scalable, modern APEX applications. Oracle publishes official APEXlang Skills in a public GitHub repository for direct AI agent integration.
APEXREST view: Oracle APEX AI Application Generator is the first production-ready tool where an AI agent generates not arbitrary code, but an application specification in a standardized Oracle format with full governance and git-based code review. For enterprise APEX teams: APEXlang combined with the AI generator reduces the path from requirement to working prototype from weeks to hours. For companies planning migration from legacy ERP: the accelerated delivery model means AI can generate a portion of screens and reports directly while retaining full quality control.

Under 100 Days to the State Sector Deadline: September 1, 2026 — Final Enforcement Date for Removing 1C/BAS from Ukrainian Government Institutions

Situation: As of May 21, 2026, fewer than 100 days remain until September 1, 2026 — the official deadline for Ukrainian state-sector institutions to complete the removal of prohibited software including 1C and BAS. Current legal status: NSDC sanctions against 1C have been in force since 2022; SSSCIP published a prohibition list covering 27+ products (1C, BAS, UA-Budget, and others); Draft Law No. 13505 (up to 2% annual turnover fine) is under final Verkhovna Rada deliberation. Enforcement deadlines: September 1, 2026 — government and public sector; December 1, 2026 — critical infrastructure enterprises (banks, energy, transport). Market reality: BAS franchisees confirmed the effective suspension of active new license sales to the state sector from April 2026; the commercial sector faces regulatory risk in dealings with state-sector clients or during compliance inspections.
APEXREST view: The window for a planned migration is narrowing — enterprises starting a migration project now have sufficient time before the December 1, 2026 deadline to deploy a production MVP on Oracle APEX. Oracle APEX with Oracle AI Database 26ai delivers enterprise-grade infrastructure with zero dependency on sanctioned vendors. A structured migration started today is far preferable to a forced transition under deadline pressure. Migration planning consultation: [email protected]

APEX Connect 2026 Closes Today: On-Demand Recordings Now Available — 66 Sessions, APEXlang Workshops, Connor McDonald '26ai 100% Demo', Simon Hunt Official Roadmap

Situation: May 20, 2026 — the third and final day of APEX Connect 2026 (Heide Park Soltau, Lower Saxony, Germany). The first large Oracle APEX community conference following Oracle APEX 26.1 GA has wrapped: 66 sessions across three days including APEXlang hands-on workshops by Scott Spendolini, AI Agents demonstrations, Data Reporter previews, and Workflow Parallel Execution deep dives. DOAG confirmed: on-demand video access to all sessions becomes available after conference close and remains accessible for at least one year. Priority recordings for enterprise teams: Carsten Czarski keynote 'Low-code with APEX 2026: The State of Play'; Connor McDonald 'The Innovation Continues: More 26ai features, More 100% demo, Zero Slides' (Day 2, May 19); Simon Hunt (Oracle APEX Head of Product Management) — official post-26.1 roadmap and team priorities for 2026–2027; Karen Cannell 'Seriously SELECT AI'. APEX Connect 2026 co-located with DOAG Datenbank + Cloud Infrastructure and CloudLand 2026 (May 18–22, same venue).
APEXREST view: APEX Connect 2026 on-demand recordings arrive at the optimal moment: the OCI rollout of APEX 26.1 is actively progressing to all 50 Oracle Cloud regions, and APEX teams can review new capabilities while preparing for the automatic cloud update. Simon Hunt's roadmap session will serve as the definitive public reference for CTOs and architects planning Oracle APEX projects on a 2026–2028 horizon. The confirmed on-demand format requires no conference registration — making all content accessible to any team that missed the event in person. APEX consultation: [email protected]

EU 20th Sanctions Package Against Russia: New Ban on Cybersecurity Services to Russian Entities, 120 New Listings — Elevated Compliance Risk for Companies Still on 1C/BAS

Situation: The EU Council adopted its 20th package of sanctions against Russia on April 23, 2026 — the largest by individual listings in two years (120 new designations). Key technology-related measures: a new explicit prohibition on providing cybersecurity services to the Russian government or legal entities registered in Russia; tightened export restrictions on dual-use technology; 60 new entities on the military-industrial complex support list, including 28 in China, Hong Kong, Türkiye, Thailand, and the UAE. Leading law firms (Skadden, Global Trade & Sanctions Law) published compliance analysis in April–May 2026: companies providing IT services using software or supply chains connected to Russia face material compliance exposure under the 20th package. For businesses in Ukraine: the EU sanctions framework now directly complements domestic 1C/BAS prohibitions (NSDC sanctions, SSSCIP list, Draft Law No. 13505), creating a multi-layered regulatory environment.
APEXREST view: The EU's 20th sanctions package confirms a clear trend — each successive package adds technology and cybersecurity service prohibitions, progressively narrowing the space for companies with any Russian-linked dependencies. The compliance risk stack for enterprises still on 1C/BAS now combines EU sanctions, Ukrainian domestic legislation, and executive personal liability. Oracle APEX with Oracle AI Database 26ai is a fully EU-compliant enterprise stack with zero dependency on sanctioned jurisdictions or vendors. Migration consultation: [email protected]

Oracle Deep Data Security Now GA in Oracle AI Database 26ai: Identity-Aware Database-Level Protection for AI Agents — Row/Column Access Control Against Prompt Injection

What's new: Oracle announced the general availability of Oracle Deep Data Security — a new security subsystem in Oracle AI Database 26ai delivering identity-aware, context-aware access control at the database layer for agentic AI applications. The problem it solves: an AI agent acting on behalf of a user can, through prompt injection or misconfiguration, attempt to access data belonging to other users. Deep Data Security eliminates this via declarative SQL policies enforced inside the database engine itself: user identity and execution context are propagated to the database at runtime; policies define what data is visible at row, column, or cell level for a given request regardless of whether the query comes from an application, an agent, or a human; an agent cannot retrieve unauthorized data even if it generates incorrect or adversarial SQL. Enforcement happens inside Oracle Database — not in middleware or the application layer — eliminating the need to duplicate filtering logic across every application and agent. Availability: included in the current Release Update of Oracle AI Database 26ai, both on-premises and on OCI.
APEXREST view: Oracle Deep Data Security is a foundational requirement for moving Oracle APEX AI Agents from pilot to production in regulated environments. The governance-first architecture of APEX 26.1 is now backed by database-level enforcement: the LLM generates SQL → Oracle Database enforces the policy → the agent receives only authorized data, regardless of what was asked. For enterprises replacing legacy ERP: database-level security enforcement meets data protection requirements for financial and personal data without additional middleware and without trusting the LLM as the security boundary. For CTOs and CISOs: Deep Data Security removes the key enterprise objection against agentic AI — 'we cannot trust an AI agent with financial data'. Now you can.

Ukraine Draft Law No. 13505: Up to 2% Annual Turnover Fine for Using 1C/BAS — IT Ukraine Association Officially Endorses the Bill

Situation: The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine is deliberating on draft law No. 13505 'On the Prohibition of the Use and Distribution of Hostile Software Products and Hostile Information Technology Tools'. Key provisions: statutory definition of 'hostile software' — products from companies registered in aggressor states or included on sanctions lists (1C and BAS are explicitly covered); financial penalty of up to 2% of annual turnover for companies found using prohibited software; exclusion from public procurement through Prozorro for non-compliant companies; the law targets actual operational use, not only procurement. The Verkhovna Rada Committee on Digital Transformation recommended adoption in October 2025. IT Ukraine Association formally endorsed the bill and called for accelerated passage. Existing NSDC sanctions against 1C/BAS and the SSSCIP prohibited software list are already in force.
APEXREST view: Draft Law No. 13505 moves the 1C/BAS question from regulatory recommendation to direct financial risk — a 2% annual turnover fine is material for any enterprise. Critically: even before the law is enacted, active NSDC sanctions and the SSSCIP prohibited software list already expose non-compliant companies to risk during inspections starting September 2026. Oracle APEX with Oracle AI Database 26ai delivers enterprise-grade infrastructure with zero dependency on sanctioned vendors. For enterprises still delaying migration: the window for a planned, orderly transition is closing. Migration consultation: [email protected]

OCI Managed MCP Service for Oracle AI Database: Agentic Access to Oracle Data Through Any MCP Client — Zero Additional Cost, Full Governance

What's new: Oracle announced OCI Managed MCP Service for Oracle AI Database — a cloud-native, HTTPS-based solution for connecting AI agents (Claude Desktop, VS Code Copilot, Microsoft Copilot, etc.) to Oracle AI Database 26ai and Oracle Database 19c on OCI and multicloud environments (@AWS, @Azure, @Google Cloud). Architecture: AI agents authenticate through OCI Identity (OAuth 2.0, federation with Microsoft Entra ID); access restricted to approved toolsets only; SQL Reports deliver governed, parameterized SQL as reusable MCP tools for business users; full audit trail via V$SESSION + DBTOOLS$MCP_LOG. Zero additional cost: included in OCI Database Tools. Distinction from SQLcl MCP Server: the previous implementation was client-side for developers; this is an OCI-level managed enterprise service for business users.
APEXREST view: OCI Managed MCP Service enables AI-agent access to Oracle business data for end users through any MCP-compatible client — with full Oracle APEX and Oracle Database governance preserved. For enterprise APEX applications: a business user asks a question in Claude Desktop or Copilot and receives a validated answer grounded in Oracle data, with no SQL knowledge and no schema exposure. The agent sees only approved SQL Reports and authorized toolsets. For enterprises replacing legacy ERP: MCP + APEX opens a class of AI tools where business data remains in the Oracle ecosystem with full control. Technical consultation: [email protected]

Oracle APEX in Oracle's Multicloud Strategy 2026: APEX@Azure, APEX@AWS, and APEX@Google Cloud — Same Code, Same AI Capabilities, Any Cloud Provider

What's new: Oracle published a detailed overview of Oracle APEX deployment as part of its 2026 multicloud strategy. Key facts: Oracle APEX runs natively on Oracle Database without code changes regardless of environment — OCI, Oracle Database@Azure, @AWS, or @Google Cloud; no additional licensing cost — if you have Oracle Database, you have APEX; accelerated 2026 regional expansion covers all three major cloud providers with zero-ETL analytics and unified billing. APEX 26.1 GA (May 15, 2026): APEXlang and AI Agents function identically across all Oracle multicloud environments. Oracle APEX is available in 39 Oracle cloud regions across 21 countries.
APEXREST view: Oracle's multicloud strategy removes a key barrier for enterprises with heterogeneous IT infrastructure: an APEX application lives wherever Oracle Database lives — on AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, or OCI — with no refactoring required. For companies replacing legacy ERP with hybrid cloud stacks: choosing Oracle APEX does not lock you into OCI — the architecture transfers between clouds as strategy evolves. APEXlang and the CI/CD DevOps stack work identically across all Oracle multicloud environments. Technical consultation on multicloud APEX architecture: [email protected]

Oracle APEX 26.1 Is Now Generally Available: APEXlang, AI Agents, and AI Interactive Reports — The Largest Platform Release of 2026, Three Days Before APEX Connect

What's new: Oracle announced the general availability of Oracle APEX 26.1. Three major new capabilities: APEXlang is now officially GA — an open, declarative, human-readable specification language for APEX applications expressed as structured .apx text files, supporting human-readable git diffs, SQLcl validation, VS Code integration, and APEXlang View in Page Designer; AI Agents with AI Tools — native agentic AI architecture in APEX applications: the AI Agent manages the conversation, AI Tools define what the agent is authorized to do, execution stays within the APEX application boundary with full governance and audit trail; AI Interactive Reports — conversational BI built into standard APEX, users query reports in natural language ('European customers grouped by industry', 'highlight top customers') without SQL. APEX 26.1 also includes significant enhancements to workflow automation, security, translation management, maps, and Universal Theme. Available today for on-premises (Exadata, Linux, Windows); OCI rollout planned for the coming weeks. Released three days before APEX Connect 2026 (May 18–20, Heide Park Soltau, Lower Saxony, Germany).
APEXREST view: Oracle APEX 26.1 GA marks the shift from AI as a feature to AI as a native component of the platform. APEXlang resolves the DevOps gap for enterprise APEX teams: git workflow, code review, and CI/CD become native — no workarounds required. AI Agents with a governance-first architecture directly address the key enterprise objection against AI automation: 'we cannot trust AI with our business data' — the agent acts only within explicitly authorized AI Tools. For organizations evaluating Oracle APEX as a replacement for legacy ERP: APEX 26.1 with APEXlang and AI Agents delivers enterprise low-code with production-ready AI automation and a full DevOps stack in a single product.

APEXlang Now in Production: APEXlang View in Page Designer, SQLcl Validation, Oracle SQL Developer for VS Code — Oracle APEX Gets an Official Enterprise DevOps Stack

What's new: With APEX 26.1 GA, APEXlang moves from Early Adopter preview to a fully supported GA feature with an official toolchain. Available for developers: APEXlang View in Page Designer — real-time page metadata inspection without leaving App Builder; Static IDs for meaningful git diffs — stable component identifiers that make version comparisons human-readable; SQLcl validation of APEXlang source before import — integrates into CI/CD pipelines via command line; Oracle SQL Developer for VS Code — full APEXlang support in the IDE, enabling AI agents to generate and modify .apx files directly. Michael Hichwa (SVP Oracle Software Development): APEXlang is 'capture of intent, not implementation' — a structured format both humans and AI agents understand. APEXlang transforms Oracle APEX from a GUI-only tool into a platform with a complete code-first developer workflow.
APEXREST view: APEXlang GA solves a real problem for enterprise APEX teams: code review, git-based workflows, and AI-assisted development previously required workarounds for binary XML exports. Git, CI/CD, PR review, and AI code generation are now native to Oracle APEX. For teams building ERP replacement projects: new projects start with a DevOps-ready architecture from day one — no unreadable XML exports, no additional tooling. For CTOs and tech leads: APEXlang GA is Oracle APEX with a developer experience matching any code-first platform. Technical consultation on APEX DevOps: [email protected]

IBM and Oracle Expand 40-Year Partnership: IBM watsonx Orchestrate Coming to OCI in July 2026, Red Hat RHEL on OCI, AI Agents for Enterprise Oracle APEX

What's new: IBM and Oracle announced an expansion of their 40-year strategic partnership in May 2026. IBM watsonx Orchestrate — IBM's flagship AI agent portfolio — will be available on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure in July 2026, enabling multi-agent AI automation for the Oracle ecosystem without changing cloud providers. Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) can now be purchased directly within OCI using Oracle Universal Credits, eliminating separate licensing contracts. IBM Consulting is extending managed services for Oracle customers: a new managed service for Maximo on OCI and support for migrating Maximo workloads to Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP. IBM Envizi (ESG reporting and environmental data management) launches as SaaS on OCI. IBM Turbonomic has been verified for OCI resource optimization. IBM frames the expansion as a response to enterprise demand for combining IBM AI capabilities with the Oracle ecosystem on a single cloud platform.
APEXREST view: The IBM-Oracle partnership confirms OCI as an open enterprise platform where Oracle APEX coexists with watsonx Orchestrate, RHEL, and IBM Consulting managed services in a single ecosystem. For enterprises building ERP replacements on Oracle APEX: IT infrastructure you already rely on (RHEL, IBM Maximo, IBM Turbonomic) is now natively available in the same cloud environment as your APEX application. Strategic value: watsonx Orchestrate on OCI will enable AI agent orchestration for APEX applications via a unified API — the next level of automation beyond SELECT AI.

Oracle OCI Cleared for US DoD Classified AI Networks (IL6/IL7) — Defense-Grade Security Confirmed for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure: No Higher Certification Exists

What's new: In early May 2026, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure joined eight technology companies cleared to deploy AI capabilities on classified U.S. Department of Defense networks. Impact Level 6 (IL6) covers secret networks; IL7 is the highest classification level in the US. Oracle joins AWS, Google, Microsoft, NVIDIA, OpenAI, SpaceX, and Reflection on the cleared list. The agreement enables OCI AI capabilities for intelligence analysis, classified data processing, and decision support in closed defense environments. Oracle's long-standing relationships with US defense and intelligence agencies underpinned its inclusion. Notable context: Anthropic was excluded for insisting on safety guardrails for military AI use — Oracle passed this filter. The agreement encompasses FIPS 140-2, DoD IL6/IL7, DORA, NIS2, and ISO 27001/17/18.
APEXREST view: DoD IL7 clearance is the highest confirmed security certification for any cloud platform worldwide. For enterprises evaluating OCI as an Oracle APEX hosting platform: OCI is certified at the level where US state secrets are stored in the cloud — a fundamentally different security tier compared to any sanctioned legacy ERP vendor. For regulated industries (banking, insurance, critical infrastructure): Oracle OCI as the Oracle APEX hosting platform is the technically and regulatory-sound choice. Oracle OCI combines the world's highest security clearance with a full AI stack — a strong foundation for CISO and legal teams making platform architecture decisions.

APEXlang Ahead of APEX Connect 2026: Community Technical Analyses Published — Specification-Driven Development as the New Oracle APEX Standard

What's new: Ahead of APEX Connect 2026 (May 18, Heide Park Soltau), the Oracle APEX community is publishing technical analyses of APEXlang — the new APEX application specification language. Traust published a detailed breakdown: APEXlang is a text-based format (.apx files) replacing the monolithic SQL export; supports human-readable git diff, AI generation, and specification-driven development; Michael Hichwa (SVP Oracle Software Development) defined the core concept: capturing intent rather than raw implementation code; APEXlang compiler preview is available in APEX 26.1 Early Adopter; simultaneous App Builder and text editor editing is supported. MaxAPEX and Into The Oracle Verse confirm: APEXlang enables bulk changes via search/replace in a text file — something fundamentally impossible with binary SQL exports. Carsten Czarski will present APEXlang as the central feature in his APEX Connect 2026 keynote on May 18. Oracle APEX 26.1 GA is expected in 2026.
APEXREST view: APEXlang solves a real problem for enterprise APEX teams: code review, git workflows, and AI-assisted development previously required workarounds for binary XML exports. DevOps practices are now native to Oracle APEX. For teams building ERP migration projects on Oracle APEX: new projects can be architected with Git, CI/CD, and code review from day one — without additional tooling. For CTOs and tech leads making 3–5 year platform decisions: APEX 26.1 + APEXlang is Oracle APEX with modern developer experience, backed by a transparent public roadmap.

OCI Enterprise AI: xAI Grok 4.3 and NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Nano Omni — Multimodal AI Models Now Available for Oracle APEX SELECT AI and AI Assistant

What's new: In May 2026, Oracle launched OCI Enterprise AI and announced the availability of two new models. xAI Grok 4.3 — a reasoning model with strong performance in logic, mathematics, coding, and multi-step analysis — is now available on OCI Generative AI. NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Nano Omni — a fully open-source multimodal model that reasons across video, audio, images, and text in a single system — is the first model of this class on OCI Enterprise AI. Oracle positions OCI Enterprise AI as the platform for moving from AI experimentation to production deployments. Both models are available as AI providers for Oracle APEX SELECT AI and APEX AI Assistant without changes to existing APEX application architecture.
APEXREST view: Grok 4.3 and Nemotron 3 Nano Omni on OCI expand Oracle APEX's AI capabilities without requiring application architecture changes. The multimodal Nemotron 3 Nano Omni opens new business automation scenarios: document analysis with images, audio note processing, video report extraction — all directly in an APEX application via SELECT AI or APEX AI Assistant. For enterprises building an ERP replacement on Oracle APEX: choosing an AI model no longer means changing the platform — OCI Enterprise AI provides access to multiple model classes through a single API.

Oracle APEX 23.2 End of Support on May 31, 2026 — 21 Days Left for Teams Still Running Legacy APEX Versions

Situation: Oracle has confirmed: support for Oracle APEX 23.2 ends on May 31, 2026. The support period had already been extended once — from November 2025 to May 2026 — to accommodate the delayed releases of APEX 24.1 and 24.2. No further extensions are planned. After May 31, Oracle will not provide security patches, bug fixes, or official support for APEX 23.2. Current release landscape: APEX 24.2 — primary supported release (through July 31, 2027); APEX 24.1 — supported through December 31, 2026; APEX 26.1 — Early Adopter available now, GA expected in 2026. Teams on Oracle Cloud (OCI Autonomous Database) receive updates automatically through the planned OCI update cycle. On-premises APEX instances require a manual upgrade before the deadline.
APEXREST view: The APEX 23.2 end-of-support deadline is not just an administrative milestone. After May 31, vulnerabilities in APEX 23.2 will not receive security patches — a direct risk for systems handling sensitive business data. APEX 24.2 is the right target release: it includes AI Interactive Reports, SELECT AI without additional configuration on OCI Autonomous Database, and an improved AI Assistant in App Builder. Upgrading from 23.2 to 24.2 is a standard procedure that does not require refactoring existing business logic.

APEX Connect 2026 — 9 Days to Go: APEXlang Preview, SELECT AI in Practice, and the Official Oracle APEX Roadmap

Situation: May 18–20, 2026, Heide Park Soltau (Lower Saxony, Germany) hosts APEX Connect 2026 by DOAG — the largest annual Oracle APEX community conference. Featured keynote: Carsten Czarski "Low-code with APEX 2026 — AI, APEXlang, new components, and the state of the platform" — the first extended public preview of APEXlang and Oracle APEX 26.1. Karen Cannell will present "Seriously SELECT AI" — practical SELECT AI applications in Oracle AI Database 26ai for natural language business data queries. Simon Hunt (Oracle APEX Product Management) delivers the official product roadmap update with team priorities. The event co-locates with DOAG Datenbank + Cloud Infrastructure and CloudLand 2026 on the same venue (May 18–22). Over 1,000 attendees are expected from across Europe and globally.
APEXREST view: APEX Connect 2026 is where the Oracle APEX team publicly details APEXlang and APEX 26.1 for the first time. For teams evaluating low-code platforms, the conference materials will be a practical reference point for 2026–2027 decision-making. For organizations assessing Oracle APEX as a replacement for legacy ERP: the Carsten Czarski keynote will answer "where will Oracle APEX be in a year" — a question no regional alternative can match with comparable community depth or roadmap transparency.

Ukraine's 1C/BAS Ban Formalized: 27 Prohibited Titles, Fines up to 13.4M UAH — Enterprise Migration Accelerates

Situation: Since January 2026, the State Service of Special Communications and Information Protection of Ukraine (Derzhspetszviazok) has published the official open register of software prohibited from use, enacted under Cabinet of Ministers Resolution No. 1335 of October 22, 2025. The register covers 27 products: all versions of 1C:Enterprise, 1C:Accounting, 1C:Trade and Warehouse, 1C:Payroll and HR, BAS ERP, BAS Holding Management, BAS Trade Management, BAS Document Management CORP, BAS Accounting CORP, UA-Budget, and related products. Scope: government agencies and critical infrastructure operators face a full prohibition; for private businesses — purchasing new licenses, applying updates, or making payments to sanctioned vendors is prohibited, even for previously acquired software. Fines: from 1,000 to 2,000 minimum wages — equivalent to 6.7 to 13.4 million hryvnias — depending on the type and recurrence of the violation. Combined with the EU's 20th sanctions package (effective May 14, 2026), a dual regulatory pressure point is forming for any organization still running 1C/BAS.
APEXREST view: The detailed prohibited list with specific fine amounts moves the conversation from "why migrate?" to "when and how?" Fines of 6.7–13.4 million UAH are a concrete, quantified sanction for delayed action — not a theoretical risk. Oracle APEX and Oracle AI Database 26ai carry zero sanctions exposure. APEXREST provides practical compliance audits of accounting systems against the Derzhspetszviazok register and a clear migration roadmap from 1C/BAS to Oracle APEX.

OCI Compute with NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Now GA: 8 GPUs × 96 GB GDDR7, $4.50/GPU-Hour — Multimodal AI in the Same OCI Ecosystem as Oracle APEX

What's new: Oracle Cloud Infrastructure announced the general availability of OCI Compute with NVIDIA RTX PRO — bare metal instances featuring 8× NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition GPUs with 96 GB GDDR7 memory per GPU, 3 TB of system memory (2× more than competing hyperscalers), 61.44 TB NVMe storage (4× more), at $4.50 per GPU-hour. The Blackwell architecture has received NVIDIA Exemplar Cloud Validation on OCI. OCI RTX PRO is purpose-built for next-generation multimodal AI workloads: applications combining text, image, video, and simulation data — now available as production infrastructure within OCI. Oracle and NVIDIA confirmed the expansion of AI computing scale within a single cloud platform.
APEXREST view: OCI RTX PRO confirms Oracle's strategic direction: AI compute and Oracle APEX low-code development within a single AI-native infrastructure. For organizations choosing Oracle APEX as a migration platform from legacy ERP: AI automation of business processes — analytics, agents, NLP, SELECT AI — is available directly within the same OCI ecosystem that hosts your APEX application, without separate GPU cloud providers or additional architectural complexity.

Oracle AI Database 26ai: Platinum Failover Under 30 Seconds, Diamond Under 3 Seconds, and Post-Quantum NIST ML-KEM Encryption

What's new: Oracle confirmed new availability tiers for Oracle AI Database 26ai on Exadata and Autonomous Database. Platinum-tier: disaster failover typically under 30 seconds for high-throughput multi-node clusters — up to 4× faster than Oracle Database 19c — without application changes or performance tradeoffs. Diamond-tier (Oracle Distributed AI Database + Oracle GoldenGate): failover typically under 3 seconds, designed for real-time payments, telecommunications, and global trading platforms. Post-Quantum Security: support for NIST-standard quantum-resistant algorithms (ML-KEM) and hybrid key exchange (ECDHE + ML-KEM) is included. Independent analysts Futurum, IDC, and Constellation Research confirm Oracle AI Database 26ai is redefining mission-critical availability for AI workloads. Features are available in Autonomous Database and Exadata on OCI.
APEXREST view: For organizations migrating from legacy ERP, the new availability tiers are a practical answer to the question "what happens when the server goes down?": failover in 30 seconds or even 3 seconds without changing application code. This is a level of availability that is structurally impossible to achieve on legacy ERP architectures where any update required a maintenance window. Post-Quantum Security is another reason to begin migration now: data protection that exceeds current regulatory requirements and already prepares for the quantum future.

IBM and Oracle: watsonx AI Agents Directly Inside Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP — New Enterprise Agentic AI Model on OCI

What's new: IBM and Oracle announced an expansion of their 40-year strategic partnership, focused on agentic AI and hybrid cloud. IBM watsonx Orchestrate launches specialized AI agents for Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP: Learning & Development and Talent Acquisition agents operate directly inside Oracle HCM without leaving the OCI ecosystem. IBM Consulting is deploying a managed service for IBM Maximo (EAM) on OCI — enabling industrial enterprises to run EAM and ERP in a single Oracle cloud environment. IBM watsonx.ai, including Granite models, is now certified to run on OCI. Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) is becoming available for purchase directly via Oracle Cloud universal credits — removing a key barrier for IBM customers accustomed to RHEL infrastructure. IBM Envizi ESG Suite is available on OCI for enterprise sustainability reporting. IBM and Oracle jointly presented at Oracle AI World 2026 in Las Vegas.
APEXREST view: The IBM + Oracle partnership is a practical answer to the question "what comes after migrating from legacy ERP?" Oracle APEX as a low-code platform sits within the same OCI ecosystem that now provides IBM watsonx AI agents, IBM Maximo EAM, and IBM Consulting managed services. For industrial enterprises seeking an enterprise-grade 1C replacement with full production accounting and AI automation: Oracle APEX + OCI + IBM Maximo is a proven enterprise stack, backed by IBM Consulting. Customers gain not just an ERP migration, but access to a global AI infrastructure with zero dependence on sanctioned vendors. Enterprise architecture consultation: [email protected]

EU 20th Russia Sanctions Package — Cybersecurity Services Ban and New Banking Restrictions from May 14, 2026: Two Layers of Compliance Pressure on 1C/BAS Users

What's new: On April 23, 2026, the EU adopted its 20th package of sanctions against Russia. New measures directly affecting enterprises still running 1C/BAS: a ban on providing cybersecurity services to Russian companies; a transaction ban targeting 20 additional Russian banks, effective May 14, 2026 — in eight days. Together, these close the last remaining legal channels for renewing 1C/BAS licenses or receiving vendor support: neither cybersecurity services nor banking transactions with sanctioned vendors remain viable. Combined with Ukraine's domestic Law 13505 — which already prohibits new license purchases and mandates migration by 2030 — a dual regulatory trap is forming: Law 13505 from Ukrainian legislation, EU sanctions from international frameworks. Companies that still carry 1C in their asset registry now face not just the 2% turnover fine under Law 13505, but also potential blocking of payment transactions with EU-regulated partners.
APEXREST view: The EU's 20th sanctions package is not abstract geopolitics — from May 14, 2026, enterprises with 1C/BAS in their asset registry face practical blocking of payment channels to sanctioned vendors, on top of Law 13505's existing prohibitions. Oracle APEX and Oracle AI Database 26ai carry zero sanctions risk: Oracle Corporation is a US company in full compliance with EU regulations, Law 13505, and all applicable jurisdictions. For CFOs and legal teams: delayed migration is no longer merely an operational and regulatory risk — it is a potential sanctions exposure.

Ukraine 1C/BAS Replacement Market 2026: SMB Solutions Dominate Media Coverage — Enterprise Segment Remains Unaddressed

Situation: New analytical overviews of the Ukrainian 1C/BAS replacement market (cityhost.ua, ontargit.com) reveal a structural gap: public media coverage is filled with SMB-oriented solutions — MASTER, Dilovod, Odoo ERP, and their derivatives. These products cover accounting, trade, and basic document management for small businesses. The enterprise segment — companies with 200+ users, complex production accounting, industry-specific requirements, custom integrations, and AI automation — is virtually absent from public market reviews. Enterprise solutions are not positioned through 'what to replace 1C with' overview articles — they require a separate enterprise sales motion and technical assessment. A significant portion of mid-market and enterprise companies selects an SMB replacement not because of technical fit, but because an enterprise-grade alternative is not visible in the media landscape — and quickly hits scaling and customization limits.
APEXREST view: Oracle APEX is the platform built for precisely the enterprise segment where SMB solutions reach their limits: scaling, custom document management, complex ERP integrations, AI automation, and enterprise security compliance. Unlike box-product accounting replacements, Oracle APEX with Oracle AI Database 26ai enables building a fully customized enterprise system tailored to a specific business model — without migrating to yet another box with the same constraints.

75% of Ukrainian Enterprises Still on Banned Software: Law 13505 in Active Enforcement Phase — Mandatory Migration Deadlines Through 2030

Situation: Market analysts estimate approximately 75% of Ukrainian enterprises across all economic sectors continue to use Russian-origin software — over 40 products, including 27 officially listed in the State Special Communications Service's prohibited software registry (January 8, 2026). This affects not only private businesses, but also state-owned and municipal enterprises and educational institutions. Law 13505 (adopted July 18, 2025) establishes a phased mandatory exit from banned software with a final deadline of 2030. Mandatory compliance is already in force for critical infrastructure operators, government systems, and systems handling classified or official information. For private businesses: purchasing new licenses and paying support to sanctioned vendors is already prohibited. Fines of up to 2% of annual turnover apply for violations of migration deadlines.
APEXREST view: 75% non-compliance is not a reason to wait — it is the starting point of active regulatory enforcement, not its conclusion. Financial institutions and investors already have legal grounds to deny financing to companies that retain banned software. Oracle APEX with Oracle AI Database 26ai is not a box-replacement for 1C — it is a scalable, AI-ready enterprise architecture platform. The optimal moment to begin a technical assessment is now, before regulatory pressure escalates to direct sanctions on private businesses. Contact us: [email protected]

Oracle Deep Data Security GA in Oracle AI Database 26ai: Identity-Aware Protection Against Unauthorized AI Agent Access to Corporate Data

What's new: Oracle confirmed GA of Oracle Deep Data Security in Oracle AI Database 26ai — the first database-native authorization mechanism that addresses the core AI agent security challenge. Traditional AI agents operate under highly privileged service accounts with excessive access to corporate data, regardless of who the actual authorized user is. Oracle Deep Data Security enforces the real end-user's authorization model directly in the database engine using declarative SQL policies: row-level (agents see only authorized rows), column-level (hide entire columns based on identity), and cell-level — new in 26ai — masking individual cells to NULL based on clearance level, resistant to inference attacks. OAuth2 token propagation sends the real end-user identity through Microsoft Entra ID or OCI IAM to the database — the AI agent gets access only to what the authorized user can see. Full audit trail captures all agent actions with user identity context. Included at no additional cost in Oracle Autonomous Database.
APEXREST view: Oracle Deep Data Security is the technical answer to one of the most significant enterprise objections to AI agents: "we cannot allow an AI agent unrestricted access to our business data." With Deep Data Security, an agent operates within exactly the same permissions as the real authorized user — and every action is captured in a full audit trail with identity context. For organizations migrating from legacy ERP to Oracle APEX and planning AI automation of business processes: this is the foundational security mechanism for building trusted AI architecture on corporate data — without external data exposure, without duplicating access control logic across every application and agent. Oracle includes Deep Data Security in Autonomous Database at no extra cost, confirming that enterprise-grade AI agent security is a platform baseline, not a premium feature.

Oracle Joins Pentagon's AI Initiative: DoD Signs Deals with 8 Tech Firms to Deploy AI on Classified Networks (IL6/IL7) — ORCL +7%

What's new: On May 1, the U.S. Department of Defense announced agreements with eight technology companies — Oracle, Amazon Web Services, Google, Microsoft, OpenAI, SpaceX, NVIDIA, and Reflection — to deploy their AI systems on DoD's classified networks at Impact Level 6 and Impact Level 7. These networks are used for classified and top-secret information. AI will be applied to data synthesis, situational awareness, and decision support in complex operational environments. Kim Lynch (EVP, Oracle Government, Defense & Intelligence) confirmed the agreement: "This reflects a shared commitment between the Department of War and Oracle to ensure the United States leads decisively in AI as a matter of national security and global leadership." Notably, Anthropic was excluded — the Pentagon identified the company as a supply-chain risk. Oracle shares (ORCL) rose 6.5–7% to $171.83 on May 1, 2026.
APEXREST view: for enterprise customers and public sector organizations: Oracle is the platform the Pentagon trusts with AI at the IL6/IL7 classified network level. This is a structural fact confirmed by a formal DoD agreement — not a marketing claim. Combined with the $300 billion Oracle+OpenAI contract (starting 2027) and the Stargate program, this positions Oracle as a foundational AI infrastructure provider at the highest strategic level. For organizations in Ukraine and CEE choosing a migration platform from legacy ERP: Oracle is not just a database and low-code development platform — it is AI infrastructure whose reliability has been validated where the requirements are most demanding.

Oracle Launches Monthly CSPU — Critical Security Patch Update Starting May 2026: Faster Critical Fixes Between Quarterly CPUs

What's new: Oracle announced the introduction of a monthly Critical Security Patch Update (CSPU) — a targeted security patch format that complements the existing quarterly Critical Patch Update (CPU). CSPUs contain only fixes for the most critical vulnerabilities, are smaller and more focused than a full CPU, and allow customers to address high-priority issues without waiting up to 90 days for the next quarterly cycle. Quarterly CPUs remain in place and will include all fixes from prior CSPUs in cumulative format. In OCI-managed cloud environments, patches are applied automatically. The first CSPU is planned for May 2026.
APEXREST view: CSPU + quarterly CPU = a complete, predictable Oracle security maintenance cycle for Oracle Database and APEX. For organizations migrating from 1C/BAS: the CSPU program is a concrete demonstration that Oracle continuously raises both the speed and frequency of its security response. The Oracle centralized security update system (CPU + CSPU) is a baseline enterprise compliance requirement — and a fundamental contrast to banned legacy ERP systems, where any vendor-managed centralized security patching has effectively ceased to exist since the Ukrainian ban.

APEX Connect 2026 at Heide Park Soltau: Three DOAG Conferences in One Week — Oracle APEX, Database, and CloudLand, May 18–22

What's new: May 18–22, 2026 at Heide Park Soltau (Lower Saxony, Germany), three major DOAG conferences run in parallel: APEX Connect 2026 (May 18–20) — the flagship annual Oracle APEX, PL/SQL, and Low-Code conference; DOAG Database with Cloud Infrastructure (May 18–19) — Oracle Database and OCI; and CloudLand 2026 (May 19–22) — the Cloud Native Festival covering DevOps, Architecture, AI, and Security. APEX Connect 2026 keynote: Carsten Czarski — 'Low-Code mit APEX 2026,' covering AI, APEXlang, and new platform components. APEX Connect is the largest dedicated Oracle APEX conference in the DACH region, organized by DOAG (Deutsche Oracle Anwender Gruppe). Three conferences at one location in one week is the highest concentration of Oracle ecosystem content in Central Europe in 2026. Post-conference session recordings are published publicly via DOAG on-demand.
APEXREST view: three major DOAG conferences at one venue is not just an event — it is the central gathering point of the Oracle ecosystem in Central Europe for 2026. For teams in CEE evaluating or actively executing a migration from legacy ERP to Oracle APEX: APEX Connect materials published post-conference provide practical Oracle APEX content at a depth unavailable in vendor webinars. DOAG Database running in parallel covers Oracle Database and OCI — together the two conferences deliver the full technical picture of the migration platform. The growing concentration of Oracle events in the DACH and CEE region directly improves the quality of the regional partner and consultant network, and the accessibility of technical expertise for enterprise customers in the transition to Oracle APEX.

Oracle APEX 23.2 End of Support: May 31, 2026 — 30-Day Deadline to Upgrade to 24.2

Situation: Oracle APEX 23.2 reaches end of support on May 31, 2026. Oracle officially extended support for APEX versions 23.2 through 24.2 from 18 months to 2 years under the Lifetime Support Policy, acknowledging the delayed availability of versions 24.1 and 24.2. Current status: APEX 24.2 — current supported release, support through July 31, 2027; APEX 24.1 — support through December 31, 2026; APEX 23.2 — support ends May 31, 2026. After May 31, APEX 23.2 receives no security patches or bug fixes from Oracle. APEX 26.1 is planned for 2026. Oracle APEX upgrades are performed without downtime to existing business applications.
APEXREST view: for organizations running APEX 23.2 approaching the support deadline: upgrading is far less risky than continuing on an unsupported version — particularly in enterprise environments with security compliance requirements. For teams migrating from legacy ERP and targeting Oracle APEX as the destination platform: plan for APEX 24.2 immediately (supported through July 2027), or target APEX 26.1 when released. The contrast with legacy ERP is instructive: Oracle APEX has a clear, publicly published version and support schedule — a concept that ceased to exist for 1C/BAS after the Ukrainian ban. Choosing Oracle means choosing a platform with a predictable, vendor-managed support lifecycle.

Oracle APEX Comes to Romania: CEE Ecosystem Expansion Signals a Growing Regional Platform Footprint

What's new: Oracle announced the first-ever Oracle APEX Day and Gen AI Bootcamp in Romania (Bucharest, May 6–7, 2026, co-organized with RoOUG). Oracle APEX Day (May 6) is a dedicated conference for Oracle APEX practitioners; Gen AI Bootcamp (May 7) is a hands-on day focused on Generative AI in APEX 26.1. This extends Oracle APEX Product Management's active April–May 2026 regional series: Ljubljana (April 17), Toronto (April 28), Minneapolis (April 30), Bucharest (May 6–7), Chicago (May 7), APEX Connect Heide Park (May 18–20), and KScope26 Denver (June 14–18). The geographic coverage spans Central Europe, Eastern Europe, North America, and Latin America — confirming global ecosystem momentum in 2026.
APEXREST view: where Oracle APEX Product Management shows up in person, a technical community forms: local practitioners gain direct platform access, the regional consultant pool grows, and the enterprise adoption barrier falls. The expansion into Romania is a clear signal for the entire CEE region, where legacy ERP replacement is among the most pressing business modernization challenges. For organizations across CEE evaluating Oracle APEX as a replacement for banned or outdated ERP systems, this regional engagement pattern confirms Oracle is treating the region as a strategic market — not an afterthought. In-person Oracle APEX Bootcamps from Product Management represent the fastest path to practical platform evaluation, with direct access to the development team and roadmap sessions. Post-event materials for all these events are published publicly.

Oracle Developer Event April 29: 'Next-Level OCI' — CI Compose, OCDK and VS Code for AI Database Developers

What's new: on April 29, Oracle hosted a live Developer Coaching event 'Next-Level OCI: Enhancing Developer Productivity with CI Compose, OCDK, and VS Code' — featuring Kris Rice (SVP, Software Development, Oracle AI Database) and Jeff Smith (Distinguished Product Manager, Oracle AI Database). CI Compose provides declarative multi-service DevOps pipeline definitions inside OCI; OCDK (Oracle Cloud Development Kit) enables Infrastructure as Code for OCI services without manual configuration; and the VS Code Extension delivers direct Oracle AI Database 26ai interaction inside the IDE without switching between tools. The event followed the April 28 release of RU 23.26.2, confirming Oracle's sustained development velocity in DevOps tooling for AI Database.
APEXREST view: CI Compose, OCDK, and the VS Code Extension address a critical DevOps gap that enterprises face when migrating from monolithic legacy ERP to Oracle APEX and AI Database 26ai. Teams moving off legacy systems consistently ask: "how will we support, patch, and deploy the new system without complex manual processes?" Oracle's answer: declarative pipelines (CI Compose), Infrastructure as Code (OCDK), and IDE-native development (VS Code) — standard enterprise DevOps from day one. For technical teams planning an Oracle APEX migration project, familiarizing with these tools is a necessary preparation step before the project starts.

Oracle FY2026 Q3: Cloud Revenue +44%, RPO $553B — Financial Stability as a Migration Platform Criterion

What's new: on March 10, Oracle announced Q3 FY2026 results: total revenue $17.2 billion (+22% year-over-year), cloud revenue $8.9 billion (+44%). Remaining Performance Obligations (RPO): $553 billion (+325% YoY), driven largely by large-scale AI contracts including the $300 billion OpenAI deal starting 2027. First quarter in 15+ years where organic revenue and Non-GAAP EPS both grew 20%+ simultaneously. FY2027 guidance raised to $90 billion revenue with $50 billion in CapEx. Oracle is actively transforming from legacy software vendor to foundational AI infrastructure provider at global scale.
APEXREST view: platform financial stability is a frequently overlooked but critical criterion when migrating from legacy ERP systems. RPO of $553 billion means Oracle is contracted years into the future, with clear commitments to institutional investors at scale. For enterprises choosing Oracle APEX and AI Database 26ai as the foundation of their new business platform, this confirms the platform will not be discontinued, acquired and redirected, or stall on R&D. The risk of "choosing the wrong long-term platform" is structurally low for Oracle customers precisely because of the scale of these long-term contractual obligations.

Oracle AI Database 26ai RU 23.26.2 Ships April 28 — Quarterly Patch Cycle Confirms Enterprise SLA

What's new: on April 28, 2026, Oracle released RU 23.26.2 for Oracle AI Database 26ai and RU 19.31 for Oracle Database 19c on Linux — on the revised schedule following the delay announced April 23. This is the fourth quarterly Release Update for AI Database 26ai since the October 2025 GA. Each RU incorporates patches from the quarterly Critical Patch Update plus bug fixes. Oracle publicly tracks the release schedule in MOS Note 742060.1; Oracle DBA Mike Dietrich provides technical analysis for each RU on his widely followed blog. Remaining dates: OJVM RU on April 30, Windows on May 12, 2026.
APEXREST view: for businesses comparing Oracle against banned legacy ERP systems, the regularity of Oracle's patch cycle is not a technical footnote — it is a vendor maturity criterion. Companies still running 1C or BAS after the Ukrainian ban receive no centralized security updates: new CVEs remain permanently open with no fix timeline. Oracle AI Database 26ai: four Release Updates in 6 months since GA plus out-of-band Security Alerts for critical vulnerabilities. Migrating to Oracle means moving from "permanently vulnerable legacy" to "regularly patched enterprise-grade infrastructure" with a predictable public schedule and auditable patch history.

Oracle RAC + AI Database 26ai: Horizontal AI Workload Scaling to 100,000+ Vector Queries/Second Without Code Changes

What's new: Oracle published a technical overview of Oracle AI Database 26ai scalability with RAC for enterprise-grade AI workloads. With RAC's share-everything architecture, vector similarity search scales linearly: over 100,000 vector distance queries per second under GloVe workload across four nodes — without any application code changes. AI inference, similarity search, and AI-native workloads scale transparently as RAC nodes are added. Active-active replication via OCI GoldenGate 26ai delivers sub-3-second failover with zero data loss for agentic workloads. RAC supports incremental capacity growth: teams add nodes as demand grows without rearchitecting the application or the AI layer.
APEXREST view: one of the central questions in any legacy ERP migration discussion is "how does your solution scale as AI query volumes grow?" Oracle RAC + AI Database 26ai delivers a definitive answer: linearly, without code rewrites, and without degradation to AI capabilities. For enterprise customers building Oracle APEX solutions with AI analytics, this means business growth translates to adding RAC nodes — not redesigning the architecture. This is a structural contrast to monolithic legacy ERP, where vertical scaling has hard ceilings and AI integration requires separate external infrastructure that adds complexity and cost.

Oracle AI Database 26ai On-Premises: GA Available for Linux x86-64, Windows and AIX Planned for 2026

What's new: Oracle confirmed the on-premises deployment roadmap for Oracle AI Database 26ai outside the Autonomous Cloud. GA for Linux x86-64 was released in January 2026 (RU 23.26.1) as Enterprise Edition with the full AI feature set: AI Vector Search, SQL FILTER operator, OML4Py/OML4SQL API v2, Private Agent Factory, and True Cache. Releases for Windows and AIX are planned for later in calendar year 2026, as confirmed in MOS Note 742060.1 (Release Schedule of Current Database Releases). Oracle is systematically covering all three major server platforms where legacy ERP environments commonly still run in enterprise settings.
APEXREST view: one of the most frequent objections in legacy ERP migration conversations is "we need an on-premises version for our Windows servers." Oracle is systematically closing this gap: Linux GA is already available with the full AI capability set, Windows and AIX are next in 2026. For enterprises migrating from legacy systems with Windows-based server infrastructure, Oracle AI Database 26ai will become available without requiring an immediate cloud migration. This removes the key "we're not cloud-ready" objection and opens the full AI stack — vector search, Select AI, Private Agent Factory, and AI Agent Memory — on existing server infrastructure.

$16 Billion Oracle Michigan Data Center Financing Closes — Stargate AI Infrastructure Accelerates

What's new: on April 25, 2026, Related Digital announced the successful closing of $16 billion in financing for a large-scale data center campus in Saline Township, Michigan — purpose-built for Oracle as part of the Stargate project. The deal includes equity from Related Digital and Blackstone-affiliated funds, fixed-rate long-term debt anchored by PIMCO-managed accounts, and advisory from Bank of America (structuring agent), Goldman Sachs, and Wells Fargo. The 'Barn' campus will comprise three facilities with over 1 gigawatt of combined capacity, closed-loop cooling, and LEED certification — construction is already underway. The project creates 2,500+ union construction jobs and 450+ permanent on-site positions. Oracle is executing its $45–50 billion capital raise, with $30 billion already secured; the full program is anchored by its $300 billion OpenAI partnership starting 2027.
APEXREST view: the closing of $16 billion in financing is further confirmation that Oracle has moved well beyond software and is now a foundational AI infrastructure player at global scale. For enterprise customers migrating to OCI, it means the platform they are adopting is the backbone of global AI infrastructure — backed by long-term capital commitments from major institutional investors. The scale of physical investment in data centers, GPU clusters, and networking directly determines the reliability and performance of cloud services including Oracle APEX and AI Database 26ai.

Wedbush Initiates Oracle 'Outperform' at $225: Market Underestimates AI Infrastructure Transformation

What's new: on April 24, Wedbush Securities initiated coverage of Oracle (ORCL) with an 'Outperform' rating and a 12-month price target of $225 — implying roughly 30% upside from current levels. Senior analyst Dan Ives argues the market is 'fundamentally misinterpreting' Oracle's massive capital expenditures as a gamble rather than a strategic necessity for capturing the AI infrastructure market. ORCL shares are down roughly 24% in 2026 amid broader concerns about CapEx intensity in tech. Wedbush notes that Oracle has already raised $30 billion of its planned $45–50 billion capital raise through investment-grade bonds and mandatory convertible preferred stock; its $300 billion OpenAI contract (starting 2027) provides long-term revenue visibility. Oracle is transitioning from a legacy software vendor into a foundational AI infrastructure provider essential to the AI era.
APEXREST view: the Wedbush analysis reinforces the strategic narrative relevant to Oracle's enterprise customers: the massive capital deployment is not overhead — it is the foundation for capturing the AI market for the next decade. For organizations choosing between Oracle and alternatives for ERP modernization, this is a meaningful signal: Oracle is building long-term infrastructure, not just iterating on current products. As a customer or partner on the Oracle platform, you benefit directly from that investment through performance, reliability, and continuously expanding AI capabilities.

Oracle Autonomous AI Database: Online Upgrade from 19c to 26ai — Migration Barrier Removed

What's new: Oracle published the full process for online upgrade of Autonomous AI Database from Oracle Database 19c to Oracle AI Database 26ai. For read-only workloads — analytics and reporting — the upgrade runs with minimal disruption: approximately 15 minutes in read-only mode instead of a lengthy maintenance window. The underlying architecture makes it possible: compute and storage are decoupled in Autonomous Database, so Oracle switches to a pre-provisioned compute stack already running the 26ai engine instead of traditional in-place binary patching. For read-write workloads, a GoldenGate replication-based upgrade path is available with near-zero downtime. The entire process is a single click in the OCI Console. An alternative refreshable clone-based upgrade is also available for parallel testing of applications on 26ai with continuous data sync from the 19c primary without stopping the production system.
APEXREST view: one of the most common objections to database upgrades is the length and risk of required maintenance windows. Oracle is systematically removing this barrier: an online upgrade to AI Database 26ai is now a realistic option even for business-critical analytical workloads without prolonged service interruptions. For enterprises migrating from legacy ERP and planning to activate the AI capabilities in Oracle AI Database 26ai — vector search, Select AI, Private Agent Factory, and AI Agent Memory — the improved upgrade procedure significantly reduces operational risk and shortens the transition timeline from planning to production.

Oracle AI Database Agent for Gemini Enterprise (Preview): Query Oracle Data in Natural Language — Google Cloud Next 2026

What's new: at Google Cloud Next 2026 on April 22, Oracle announced the Oracle AI Database Agent for Gemini Enterprise — now available in preview on Google Cloud Marketplace. Enterprise users can ask natural language questions against Oracle AI Database through Gemini Enterprise without writing SQL: ask "Which products are most at risk of stockouts next quarter and what are the revenue implications?" — Gemini Enterprise routes the request to the Oracle AI Database Agent, which applies semantic understanding and governance guardrails and returns an answer grounded in live Oracle data without extracting it externally. Full Agent-to-Agent (A2A) compatibility via Google's Agent Development Kit (ADK) enables automated multi-step business workflows on Oracle data. Oracle AI Database@Google Cloud is also adding OCI GoldenGate Service (preview) for near real-time Oracle data replication to Google BigQuery, with the service expanding to 20 regions.
APEXREST view: Oracle AI Database Agent for Gemini Enterprise is a practical demonstration of Oracle's strategy: enterprise data stays in Oracle, while AI queries arrive through any leading interface — Gemini, GPT, or purpose-built agents — without extracting data. For organizations migrating from legacy ERP to Oracle APEX and AI Database 26ai, this means all corporate analytics become accessible through natural language — no SQL training, no separate AI infrastructure. The GoldenGate-powered BigQuery replication further opens Google analytics tooling to Oracle data without architectural changes. Oracle is systematically closing the most cited functional gap of legacy systems: "we can't easily get the data we need."

Oracle CPU April 2026: 483 Security Patches — Oracle Gets Patched, Legacy ERP Does Not

What is new: on April 21, 2026, Oracle released its quarterly Critical Patch Update (CPU) for April 2026 — 483 new security patches across a wide range of products. Oracle Database (versions 19c, 21c, and AI Database 26ai) received 8 patches, 4 of which address vulnerabilities remotely exploitable without authentication. Oracle REST Data Services: 2 patches (both remote, CVSS 7.5). Oracle GoldenGate: 10 patches, 7 remote. Quarterly CPUs are released on a stable schedule — January, April, July, and October — as part of Oracle's support SLA.
APEXREST view: regular security patching is not just a technical detail — it is a platform selection criterion. Enterprises still running 1C or BAS after the ban have no centralized security updates: those systems are no longer vendor-supported, and new vulnerabilities remain open indefinitely. Oracle AI Database 26ai and Oracle APEX receive quarterly CPUs, LTS updates, and out-of-band Security Alerts — this is the enterprise standard that did not exist in 1C even before the ban. Migrating to Oracle is not just a functional replacement; it is a fundamentally different level of security hygiene.

An LLM converts natural language questions into SQL filters and aggregates that users can see and edit directly for full transparency. A built-in chat mode is also available within the IR component itself.
APEXREST view: this is a turning point for Oracle APEX as an enterprise platform. Companies migrating from legacy ERP systems get not just a modern replacement, but a platform where all business analytics instantly acquire AI capabilities. The same report a manager used to build manually now answers natural language questions on demand — with zero reprogramming required.

Oracle Data Deep Dive NYC: AI Database as the Center of Agentic AI — A New Architectural Paradigm

What's new: on April 15, Oracle held Oracle Data Deep Dive NYC in New York — an event positioning AI Database as the core layer for enterprise agentic AI. Oracle bets on convergence: vector search, graph, JSON, relational, and agent memory all within a single engine, without purpose-built AI silos. Exadata Exascale uses Raft replication for sub-3-second zero-data-loss failover specifically designed for agentic workloads. Oracle challenges the "orchestration above data" paradigm: agent logic should execute as close to the data as possible, not above fragmented data stores. SiliconAngle published three analytical pieces from the event.
APEXREST view: Oracle is establishing a new enterprise AI architecture paradigm — not external AI services layered over fragmented data, but AI capabilities embedded directly into the database. For businesses on Oracle APEX, this reinforces a core advantage: Select AI, vector search, and AI agents are available without complex external AI infrastructure. They are part of the same platform that stores the business data — significantly simplifying architecture and improving security.

Regulation

Ukraine Bill 13505: Up to 2% Revenue Fine for Continued Use of 1C and BAS

Situation: Ukraine's draft law No. 13505 includes a specific enforcement mechanism — a fine of up to 2% of annual revenue for companies that do not complete migration from "hostile software" within set deadlines. Over 300,000 Ukrainian companies still use 1C or BAS. An additional risk: banks and investors already have legal grounds to deny financing if a company's internal documentation reflects continued use of such software. Bill 13505 has not yet been adopted, but the trend toward mandatory migration is clear.
APEXREST view: the scale of financial risk changes the calculation: the cost of migration now is far lower than the potential fine or loss of financing. Oracle APEX enables a phased migration — no disruptive cutover, with gradual module-by-module transition to the new architecture while keeping current operations running.
