When the Oracle Relational Database Management System hit the market in 1986 - the first commercially available version was version 4 - it comprised already SQL*Forms, which was one of the first Fourth Generation Language (4GL) products marketed as such. In the early 1990s, Oracle then had two complementary tools - SQL*Forms and SQL*ReportWriter. SQL*Forms was used to develop data entry  systems SQL*ReportWriter was used to developer reports Both tools were character-based and there was some integration between the two although they were sold as separate products. The developer interface became more similar over time and they were eventually bundled together as a single product named Oracle CDE (Cooperative Development Environment). The suite was later renamed to Oracle Developer and later Developer/2000 As with most products that had "2000" in their name, this was dropped after 1999 and the suite was renamed "Oracle Developer Suite". Tools such as JDeveloper were added over subsequent years. Most of the component parts of  Oracle Developer Suite are now part of what Oracle calls Oracle Fusion Middleware. Components.
