Keynote:
Oracle Soa Suite 11g - A Foundation Building Block For Oracle's Next Generation
Fusion Applications
This session provides an overview of the upcoming SOA Suite, and introduces the
concepts behind it, such as Service Component Architecture and how it simplifies
the end-to-end lifecycle management of SOA composite applications. Application
designers can now design, package, version, and manage their SOA composite
applications (Web services, BPEL, Enterprise Service Bus flows, and the like) as
one single entity - and make it easily available for reuse while managing it as
one. This session will also discuss the challenges around data and component
integration we face while building fusion applications - and provide you with
the concepts needed to get ready for Fusion.
Clemens Utschig works for the SOA Product Management team at Oracle
Headquarters, CA. As a native Austrian, he started his career years back at the
local consulting branch, helping customers defining their next generation J2EE
and SOA architectures. Later he founded the local Java Community to spread
knowledge and help consulting teams with the uptake of Java for new projects.
During his consulting years, he spent a year in switzerland doing crisis
management for a large scale program, in Dubai helping on ADFBC issues for the
government and doing workshops all around Europe. Since his transfer some 2
years ago into the Product Management group, Clemens is responsible for cross
product integration - and these days the advisor for SOA to Oracle Fusion
Applications development, which builds the next generation standard software
suite, as well as an advisory member of the Applications Architecture Board. He
is a frequent speaker at worldwide conferences (Oracle Open World, JAX, OOP,
ODTUG) and published countless articles in known industry journals on SOA and
related challenges.

Getting Started Forecasting Oracle Performance
There is
a DBA community focused on answering "what if" types of questions known
as forecasting, capacity planning, and resource management; for example,
"When will my server run out of CPU power?" Introducing DBAs to this
new world has been challenging because of the perceived complexity and
non-relevance. However, I discovered with a very real yet simple
demonstration that "ah ha" moments abounded! What DBAs discovered was
the math can be simple, the required data has already been collected,
they can quickly do what I demonstrated, and it is shockingly
practical! My objective with this paper is to quickly allow DBAs of all
levels to get a practical start with forecasting Oracle performance
using freely available tools.
7:00pm - 7:45pm
About Oracle's In-Memory Undo
The
Oracle database is extremely complex software. Part of the solution to
performance optimization is Oracle Corporation itself optimizing the
core database kernel code. One such optimization is the introduction of
Oracle's patented In-memory undo (IMU). Essentially, instead of
maintaining undo in Oracle segments, the undo is managed, as much as
possible, in memory, using structures optimized for in-memory
operations. How Oracle does this is fascinating and foreshadows even
greater things to come. But with any piece of code, there is always the
possibility of a bottleneck, so this presentation covers how to detect
IMU performance issues and multiple ways to potentially solve the
problem (in addition to just tuning it off).
Craig
Shallahamer is a
researcher, writer, and teacher for thousands of DBAs on six continents
in 22 countries. During his nine years with Oracle Corporation, he
co-founded the Core Technologies and the System Performance Groups. He
also began his publishing career with over 23 technical papers and
authored the book, Forecasting Oracle Performance. He is the
author and creator of the popular Oracle Performance Firefighting
and Forecasting Oracle Performance courses. Craig is a passionate
educator, a pinnacle of Oracle knowledge, and an engaging instructor.
His entertaining presentation style complements his depth of Oracle
experience to make each class unique. OraPub, Inc.,

TOPIC: Star Transformation & Optimization
This presentation illustrates how to utilize the Star Schema for
performance advantages leveraging "Star Query Transformation" vs. the
traditional Third Normal Form Snowflake schema. Mike will explain how
the Oracle Optimizer prunes a query's result set with its conversion of
many logical joins into a single operation using Bitmap Indexes. He will
also answer the question of why Bitmaps should not just be used for low
cardinality and are up to 100 times faster than traditional indexes.
PRESENTER: Michael Richards
Mike Richards is an Oracle Subject Matter Expert who has worked with
Oracle since Version 6. He has over fifteen years of Data Architecture,
DBA, Infrastructure Architecture, Business Analysis & Project Management
