Oracle Apex application and database

Can I run Oracle Apex application on window's server and connected database to linux server?
More info,
I want to run my oracle apex application on windows platform, and i want to have conected database on exadata on linux server. Is it possible to have the network connectivity?
If no, please share the documentation.
Searched everywhere, and ask oracle DBAs
Oracle APEX runs in the database, but you usually connect to it through Oracle REST Data Services (ORDS) that can run standalone where you have Java, or deployed in Tomcat, including Windows. You will access and develop the APEX application with a browser on Windows, or any other place where you have a browser.
Have a look at chapter three in the installation manual for APEX

Connect JDeveloper application to Oracle Live SQL

I am new to ADF/JDeveloper. I'd like to configure my ADF Web application to Oracle Live Server, since I'm using a Mac computer, which are not supported by Oracle's database distribution, I have tried to use Oracle VM but it freezes my Mac.
Needs information on database configuration panel are:
Host name
JDBBC port
SID
Oracle does not provide database connection information for the database behind livesql.oracle.com. If you want your own cloud database, you should look into setting up an Oracle Cloud Free Tier database. If you configure your database using the Always Free options, you should be able to have your database around for free forever.

Need to connect to mongodb database present in a server

I am working in an organization and I am supposed to connect to a mongodb database in one of the servers. As of now I have robomongo installed in my local machine and with that I can open the database and do operations like make collections and stuff.
I don't have mongodb installed in my local machine
But now I am trying to do it through spring , so do I need to install mongodb in my local machine??
Note: the database has credentials like username and password
No, you don't need to install MongoDB locally. The programming framework (in your case, Spring) will include a suitable driver which is capable of connecting to the MongoDB server.

Is Oracle Instant Client an actual database?

I want to create a small dev database just to use for developing my application. I've downloaded the Oracle Instant client and followed the directions to "install" (ie, copy/paste and set up some environment variables), but I can't find any information on how to connect, login, create database, etc, or even exactly what Instant Client is, specifically. So, a few specific questions:
Is Instant client just a set of drivers and components that allow you to connect to an existing database, or can you use Instant Client to create and administer a completely new database?
If it CAN be used to create a new database:
How do you "start" (or similar concept) the database so that it is ready for connections.
Because there is no installation, and no default configuration, I haven't set up a default schema, port, etc. So, what is the default connection information to connect to the database for the first time?
For example, I use SQL Developer to connect to and administer my remote database, so how could I connect to Instant Client from SQL Developer?
The client is JUST a client.
You'll want to download the Oracle Database installs. The easiest would be the XE (Express Edition) - it's free, and gets going on windows or linux pretty quick.
You'll then install the server software and THEN create a database. Then you can use your client to connect to said database. You can use your client now to connect to any Oracle database running on any server that you can see on your network.
There are more alternatives.
I talk about this in more detail here.

How to connect to external oracle database from BSD

One of my work mates has set up a freenas server for storage (version9.1)
I have created a jail under this running FreeBSD 10.3-STABLE.
I want to create a web server in this jail and need to be able to connect to an external oracle (11g) database. I have the web server working but have been unable to find information on how to connect to an external oracle server from freebsd.
Is this even possible?
I am very new to BSD and Oracle.
The Ports collection contains several oracle clients/odbc drivers etc. in the databases category
