This is a joint BI/DW & Web SIG meeting.

Time: 6:00 - 7:30 pm
Location:
APRESS
233 Spring Street, 6th Floor
New York, New York 10013
Topic: "APEX: Interactive Reports: An under the cover
analysis"
Abstract: Application Express provides a lot of wonderful
features with Interactive Reports (IR) that allow end-users to develop
their own custom
reports. The question for developers is how to "break-in" to the black
box to customize the interactive reports and use them the most
effectively.
This presentation will show attendees how the interactive reports are
generated and managed by Oracle. In addition, discussion will revolved
around best practices and considerations when developing with IR's.
Presenter: Josh Millinger started at Oracle in 1995 as
member of the Program Capture Team, a division dedicated to supporting
System Integrators as
they vied for large Government Contracts. Soon after, he became highly
involved in building web applications for internal use. These
applications helped manage the Oracle partner community, assisted in
event registration, and provided an online data center hardware/software
management system. It was during this time that Application Express
became a focal point of his expertise.
In 2003, Josh began the Partner Technology Center located in Reston,VA.
The PTC was designed to help Oracle's partners understand how Oracle's
technology could help them solve real world problems. Classes he helped
develop and teach included Application Express, Oracle Business
Intelligence, Application Server, and Real Application Clusters. Josh
left Oracle in 2006 to become a consultant evangelizing Oracle
technology and formed Niantic Systems, LLC with Raj Mattamal, in 2007.
Niantic's customers span many industries including Higher Education,
Construction, Healthcare, and Commercial Business.
His education includes a undergraduate Computer Science degree from the
University of Wisconsin, and a Masters degree in Computer Science
from the Johns Hopkins University

Topic: RMAN - Don't Forget the Basics
Date: Friday February 3, 2012
Time: 12:00 PM -1:00 PM EDT
Location: Webinar
Abstract : This webinar will discuss the bare bones RMAN setup
items that will bulletproof your image backups. There are many emerging
bells and whistles with 11gR2. This session will present the top 10
setup items that are fundamental to writing recoverable RMAN backups
from day one. After the basic setup, the technologist can move on to
leverage some of the new-fangled functionality of this legacy but
developing backup solution. Topics covered include: present
configuration and implementation items. use of a recovery catalog, block
change tracking, restore database validate, and the ultimate
configuration requirement-controlfile autobackup. If you read the fine
print in the documentation, you would find assumptions of setup items
that are expected to be in place to allow feature XYZ to work as
documented. The nature of those assumptions is at the heart of this
webinar. The target audience is beginner to experienced.
Michael S Abbey is a seasoned practitioner in the CORE Oracle
database arena. He is well-voiced in Oracle from 5.1.22 to the emerging
solution soon to be called Database 12c. Michael is an author in the
Oracle Press series, with most of his success being the Beginner's Guide
suite of books dating back to Oracle7 in 1995. Michael is a frequent
presenter at user group and vendor events and has keynoted at a half
dozen events in the past. He has a refreshing presentation style and
attendees at his sessions come away with new-fangled skills to practice
in the workplace. He also is the proud owner of 2 Fender guitars and 7
sets of Converse Pink Floyd sneakers.

Topic: What Oracle Can Tell You About
Your Applications
Date: Friday, October 28, 2011
Time: 12:00 PM -1:00 PM EDT
Location: Webinar
Abstract : For most database administrators, monitoring
performance means checking that nothing is horribly wrong with waits or
locks or the top 5 SQL statements by CPU, logical I/Os, or physical
I/Os. For most developers, the database is something fairly abstract,
usually at the root of their performance issues, for which the usual
panacea is called "indexing". When they meet, they have trouble
reconciling their visions and looking for solutions or improvements. But
in fact Oracle can tell more about the application it runs than the top
waits or the top SQL statements - even if you have to read between the
lines. I'll try to briefly take you through a few analysis that can be
made and can help DBAs and developers to discuss more effectively.
Stéphane Faroult first discovered relational databases and the
SQL language back in 1983. He joined Oracle France in their early days
(after a brief spell with IBM and a bout of teaching at the University
of Ottawa) and soon developed an interest in performance and tuning
topics. After leaving Oracle in 1988, he briefly tried to reform and did
a bit of operational research, but after one year, he succumbed again to
relational databases. He has been continuously performing database
consultancy since then, and founded RoughSea Ltd in 1998. He is the
author of "The Art of SQL" and of "Refactoring SQL Applications", both
published by O'Reilly, and painfully tries, on the Youtube roughsealtd
channel, to teach databases in a more entertaining way than the college
classes that were so obviously skipped by some developers (note to those
who are deprived of Youtube at work: most videos are also available on
konagora.com).
