You'll also get to work with the JavaScript libraries created by Oracle, especially for cloud developers. You'll use these tools to create a working backend application with these libraries. Using the latest Oracle Alta UI, you'll develop a state-of-the-art backend for your cloud applications. You'll learn how to develop and integrate the different cloud services required for your application and use other third-party libraries to get more features from your cloud applications. Toward the end of the book, you'll learn how to manage and secure your cloud applications, and test them to ensure seamless deployment.
