Web front end will be faster (to develope) and easier to get hold of. 
I'd go for something that has scaffolding that way the heavy lifting is 
done for you. Something like Ruby on Rails or CodeIgniter for PHP would 
be great places to start. Mind you, I'm not sure about Oracle support, 
you'd have to check as I've only used MySQL with these frameworks.
