About this title

About the Author

Sten Vesterli picked up Oracle development as his first job after graduating from the Technical University of Denmark and hasn’t looked back since then. He has worked with almost every development tool Oracle has produced in the last several decades, including ADF, APEX, JET, Application Developer Cloud Service, JDeveloper, SQL Developer, Oracle Portal, Oracle WebDB, Oracle BPEL, Collaboration Suite, Designer, Forms, Reports, and even Oracle Power Objects.

 

Sten started sharing his knowledge with a conference presentation in 1997 and has since given hundreds of conference presentations at Oracle OpenWorld and at ODTUG, IOUG, UKOUG, DOAG, DOUG, and other user group conferences around the world. His presentations are highly rated by the participants, and he has received the ODTUG Best Speaker award twice.

 

Sten has also written numerous articles for Oracle Profit, Oracle Scene, and many other publications. This is Sten's third book on Oracle ADF; before this one, he wrote Oracle ADF Enterprise Application Development – Made Simple and Developing Web Applications with Oracle ADF Essentials.

 

Oracle has recognized Sten’s skills as an expert communicator on Oracle technology by awarding him the prestigious title, Oracle ACE Director, carried by only around 100 people in the world. 

 

An independent consultant based in Denmark, Sten works with customers worldwide, helping them get the most from their investment in Oracle software. In his spare time, Sten enjoys triathlons and is working toward his private pilot license.
