Your list of Must-See Sessions for OOW 2013

By -

Each year I put together a guide to OpenWorld which lists all the data warehouse sessions, biographies for the product managers who are presenting, links to a "Data Warehousing @ OOW" calendar and links to all the related product pages on Oracle.com and OTN. This year's guide will be bigger and more informative than ever! It will only be available in Apple iBook format and it will provide a multi-media guide to this year's conference. While I am waiting for this year's schedule to be finalised I thought it would be useful to share with you my hand-picked list of the must-see sessions and hands-on labs for data warehousing. This is basically an extract (a very small extract) from the forthcoming iBook guide to data warehousing at OOW 2013. This brief session guide contains the following information:

  • List of must-see data warehouse sessions
  • List of hands-on labs
  • Comprehensive presenter biographies

 

Sessions PDF

 

To make life easier for you I have prepared this information in both iBook (click here) and PDF format (click here). Now you can have the list of must-see sessions and hands-on labs so that all you need to do is add these events to your OpenWorld schedule builder once this goes live on the OpenWorld site. Each of the session titles is linked to its "home" page within the OOW content system. All you need to do is click on the title and then once your browser opens the OpenWorld content system you can quickly and easily add the selected session to your schedule - it could not be simpler!

And stay tuned for more information on the comprehensive, multi-media iBook guide to data warehousing and big data at OpenWorld 2013. This year's complete multi-media guide will contain the following information:

  • What to expect at OOW 2013
  • Database 12c for Data Warehousing: video interviews with George Lumpklin, VP for product management
  • List of must see sessions
  • Comprehensive presenter biographies
  • Video interviews with key data warehouse customers
  • Links to product pages on Oracle.com, OTN, social media sites, blogs etc

If you have an iPad or an iPad mini then get ready to download an indispensable iBook guide to this year's event (if you bought an Android tablet then it is not too late to sell it on eBay and get a proper tablet computer from those lovely people at the Apple Store). This iBook will be available shortly after the schedule builder application goes live on the OpenWorld site. More information to follow shortly...

Image courtesy of wikipedia This post covers one of the new SQL performance enhancements that we incorporated into Database 12c Release 2 . All of these enhancements are completely automatic, i.e. transparent to the calling app/developer code/query. These features are enabled by default because who doesn’t want their queries running faster with zero code changes? So in this post I am going to focus on the new In-Memory “cursor duration” temporary table  feature. Let’s start by looking at cursor duration temp tables… Above image courtesy of wikimedia.org What is a cursor duration temp table? This is a feature that has been around for quite a long time. Cursor duration temporary tables (CDTs) are used to materialize intermediate results of a query to improve performance or to support complex multi step query execution. The following types of queries commonly use cursor duration temp tables: WITH Clause and parallel recursive WITH Grouping Sets Star Trans

There has been quite a lot of interest in the new 12c MATCH_RECOGNIZE feature for SQL pattern matching. Therefore, I thought now would be the perfect time to start a series of quick deep dive posts that explain how SQL pattern matching works. Over the coming weeks I will cover the following topics in a series of posts. This is the start of a series of posts based on a presentation that I put together for the recent annual  BIWA conferenc e at Oracle HQ. The Oracle BI, DW and Analytics user community always puts on a great conference and this year was the best yet. You can download any or all of the presentations from this year’s conference by following this link . My pattern matching deep dive presentation started life about a year ago as a post covering some of the new keywords in the explain plan that are linked to pattern matching, see here . It has now expanded to cover a much wider range of topics. Firstly, a huge vote of thanks to my development team (Lei Sheng and Chun-Chie
