Oracle Application Express outperforms Astro in 6 of 7 categories, with a stronger composite score (88 vs 77). Astro leads in no categories.
Astro doesn't clearly lead Oracle Application Express in any category on the sampled sites — pick it based on developer experience, ecosystem, or existing team skills rather than the audit scores.
Choose Oracle Application Express when your primary concern is server response time and performance. Its audit data shows consistent strength in these areas across the sampled sites.
Scores are medians across 59 audited Astro sites and 1 audited Oracle Application Express sites in the BeaverCheck database. Every audit runs the same 100+ checks — Lighthouse performance, security headers, accessibility, SEO, server response time — against a real URL. No vendor input, no sponsorship, no affiliate links.

Small sample: one or both technologies have fewer than 10 audited sites. Treat these numbers as directional — medians stabilize around 20–30 audits per side.
