The
developer track is going to be a look forward
to the skills that are required to build
secure, high-performance SQL and PL/SQL based
applications in 10g and 11g.
Topics we are looking at include:
-
11g
New Features for Developers (Dan
Morgan: Oracle Ace)
-
Writing
highly scalable code for SMP and RAC
-
Oracle
Indexes: Deep Dive (Richard
Foote: Oak Table)
-
Profiling
PL/SQL

|
DBA
|
|
There
is so much to choose from when the
conversation turns to DBA issues. Here is our
current thinking:
-
Tuning
the 11g Database (Jonathan Lewis (Oak
Table & Oracle Ace)
-
Implementing
Maximum Availability Architecture with new
11g Data Guard capabilities. Especially
the use of Data Guard with RAC
-
Effective
configuration and deployment of OEM Grid
Control
-
Automated
Health Management

|
Fusion
Middleware
|

This
is such a huge topic we are working with
Margaret Mei Lee and her team at Oracle in
Redwood Shores to help us decide. Right now we
are looking at the following general subjects:
|
|
|
Infrastructure
|
|
The
infrastructure track is being designed to be
of interest to IT managers, system
administrators, and others whose primary
responsibilities are the hardware and network
infrastructure on which Oracle databases and
applications run.
Topics will be targeted at:
-
Server
hardware and operating systems
-
Storage
administration and tuning
-
Optimum
network configuration
|
|
|
E-Business
Suite . . . . . .
|
|
We
are looking to our partners at OAUG to help us
define the topics.

We
are going to have some break-out sessions
specifically targeted not to products but to
industries. Watch for sessions for:
- Health
Care and Medicine (DICOM)
- Higher
Education
- Public
Sector
|
|
|
Security
|
|
Mary
Ann Davidson, Oracle's Chief Security Officer
is working with us to identify four break-out
session related.
|
|
|
Emerging
Technologies
|
|
Morgan's
got his eyes open and will start putting this
together after the first of the year.
Topics we
have our eyes on include:
- Oracle
Spatial (Hans
Forbrich Oracle Ace)
- Stellent
- TimesTen
In-Memory Database

Vault
|
|
|
Compliance
|
|
We
don't know how to break it to you gently so
we'll just blurt it out. 90+% of what you've
heard about Compliance has been FUD around
Sarbanes-Oxley and HIPAA. It is time to dig in
and get the facts from the experts. We are
looking are rounding up the following subject
matter experts:
- A Federal
Judge or US Attorney to talk about the law
as it is interpreted by the courts
- An expert
on international issues, likely an
attorney to talk about PIPEDA (Canada),
Basel II (EU), and other country's
regulations as they impact US
organizations doing international business
- Someone
with courtroom experience, as an expert
witness, to talk about the real-world
issues faced preparing for testifying and
lessons learned
- An expert
from Oracle to help us understand how the
various pieces of the Oracle technology
stack relate to meeting our compliance
needs.
These
sessions will be designed to meet the needs of
C-Level through project management.
