Oracle Lite: Mobile Server
Overview
Oracle Lite is used for for managing offline mobile application where users can download small amount of data to their mobile devices, change them and then upload/syncronize them with the main database.
I just recently set up an Lite environment with standalone Mobile Server and Webtogo.
Web-to-go is a Web environment with J2EE technologies (Java servlets and JSPs) . It invokes JDBC to connects to the database.
The users synchronize their data using Win32 laptops and notebooks via web interface. They log on the web alias which points to http://ourwebsite/webtogo and install the Mobile Client when they connect for the first time. After that, they can dowload, change and upload data and Mobile Server takes care of everything in between.
Administration
Workspace Manager is a web GUI used for administrating Mobile Server and for the WebToGo clients.

Performance
- Limit number of connections per application or enable connection pooling per application
- Disable WebCache as it slows down the synchronization
- I know that it is possible to trace the synchronization timing, but I didn't try it
- Determine the memory size for Mobile Server when wrapping the OC4J
