Just a couple of weeks away, and my oh my, I am going to be busy at OpenWorld this year!

Of course, first cab off the block will be the OpenWorld swim! It it September and marvellously warm in San Fran, so what better year to come along and meet new friends, and get free coffee and donuts! Just grab a towel from the hotel and head down to the marina!

Register at the link below, so we know how many donuts to buy!!!

Yes indeed! Now that the dates and times are available for OpenWorld 2019, then it is naturally time for the best data searching, filtering and analysis tool on the planet to step up to the plate, enter the fray and …. hmmm… I’ve run out of metaphors

If you are sad and pathetic enthusiastic and interested in content like me, once a large conference like OpenWorld is over, I like to have the content (slides etc ) from not just the sessions I attended, but all of the sessions I could not attend. In fact, I typically would like to have any and all available content, because that is probably the next best thing to attending the conference.

In particular, now that many of the sessions are streamed and/or capture for on-demand replay, either on the OpenWorld site directly, or via the Oracle Developers Youtube channel, the slides can then be viewed along with the presentation that drove them.

The OpenWorld conference is over for another year. It’s always a thrill, albeit a hard-working thrill, to visit San Francisco and be a part of such a huge event.

I’ll have a full wrap up post and video soon, but I wanted to get quick blog post out there so people could get a link to see the slides from my sessions.

To all those people that attended my sessions, thanks for giving up your time. I hope you got lots of benefit out of the content. And as always, if you have any feedback on what you liked, or how I can make the content better for you, please drop me a comment below.

If you’d like me to speak at your local event, please reach out to me on Twitter. I can’t make any promises – these things all depend on scheduling and budgeting, but I’ll always try my best.

Well…I’m only planning day 2 of OpenWorld and already I’ve pretty much given up on being able to see all the talks that I want to see The challenge for me will be trying to coax those people that are inside Oracle to give me a synopsis of their talk after the event. That is probably my best hope here.

In any event, if you’re a database person like me, here’s my tips for what I’ll be trying to sneak into on Tuesday.

Tuesday morning

An Insider’s Guide to Oracle Autonomous OLTP Database Cloud [TRN3979]

which overlaps with

As I mentioned in a previous blog post, I whipped up a small Application Express application to let me plan out my Openworld activities. But there’s a small problem with being able to quickly and easily find thing based on the schedule…. There is too much to see!!!

I had a quick glance through the schedule just for Monday, and already I can see myself being very frustrated with all of the content that I am going to have miss out on, simply because it clashes with other content I’d like to see.

Chris and I will be at OpenWorld next month, so our session details are below, but you can also click on the links below to add entries to your calendar to make sure you don’t miss us. Don’t forget to use the official Schedule Builder to make sure you have booked your spot at our sessions!

If you can’t get to our sessions, you might catch us wandering the halls or at The Hub. Feel free to come and say Hello and talk tech!

See you at OpenWorld!

Tune ANY SQL in 20 minutes (.ics)

Last year, I flexed my technology muscles by building on the fine ground work of Lucas Jellema in using some Node, some REST, and some JSON to extract the full Oracle Openworld speaker catalogue, and then added some JSON parsing in the database, some SQL and slapped a nice helping on Application Express on top of it all, to end up with an Application Express rendition of the Oracle Openworld speaker catalogue.

I’m back home from Oracle OpenWorld 2015. My overall feeling for this year was evolution, not revolution. We got newer versions of some products, like APEX, WebLogic, SOA Suite and Oracle Forms, just before the conference. We got previews of new versions of products, like Oracle Database 12cR2 during the conference, which we might get next year.

Of course, there was a heavy emphasis on cloud, but the difference between this year and previous years was some of the product are now generally available (GA), so it’s possible to trial or buy them. In previous years, you could only use some of the cloud products if you were “special”.
