is a well-known name in the Oracle world. Currently an Oracle ACE
Director, and chosen as the Oracle Author of the Year 2006 for his book
Cost Based Oracle – Fundamentals (Apress, 2005). Jonathan has been
using the Oracle database software for more than 21 years. Jonathan
spends a large fraction of his time trouble shooting high-performance
systems - a job that often requires a very detailed investigation of

trouble-shooting is then devoted to further investigation, writing, and
teaching on the way that Oracle works.

Topic: Oracle Exadata V2 – The World’s First OLTP Database
Machine with Sun Flash Fire Technology
Abstract : The new Exadata V2 database machine goes beyond
data warehousing to also deliver extreme performance and scalability for
online transaction processing applications (OLTP). Oracle Exadata
Storage Servers combine Oracle's smart storage software and Oracle's
industry-standard Sun hardware to deliver the industry's highest
database storage performance. To overcome the limitations of
conventional storage, Oracle Exadata Storage Servers use a massively
parallel architecture to dramatically increase data bandwidth between
the database server and storage. In addition, smart storage software
offloads data-intensive query processing from Oracle Database 11g
servers and does the query processing closer to the data. The result is
faster parallel data processing and less data movement through higher
bandwidth connections. This massively parallel architecture also offers
linear scalability and mission-critical reliability. Marshall Presser
and David Partridge will provide a technical overview of the Exadata
hardware and software platform. An Exadata demo will also be featured.
Presenter:
Marshall Presser is a Principal Enterprise Architect at Oracle
Corporation’s Enterprise Technology Center in Reston VA. He specializes
in High Availability, Business Continuity, Clustering, Disaster Recovery
and Large Scale Database Systems. Marshall is a frequent speaker at user
group meetings and Oracle technical events. Prior to his twelve years at
Oracle, he has worked for a number of hardware vendors implementing
clusters and other parallel architectures. His background includes
parallel computation, operating system and compiler development as well
as private consulting for organizations in heath care, financial
services, and federal and state governments. He holds a B.A in
Mathematics and an M.A. in Economics from the University of Pennsylvania
and a M.Sc. in Computing from Imperial College, London
David Partridge is a Senior Sales Consultant in Oracle
Corporation’s State and Local Group. He is a Database Platform
Specialist who focuses on Exadata, Oracle Enterprise Database, and
Oracle Enterprise Manager. He specializes in Reliability, Availability,
Scalability and Performance. Prior to joining Oracle Corporation, Dave
worked as a consultant for almost 20 years in a variety of computing
disciplines including Relational Database, Middleware, Identity
Management, Infrastructure, Project Management, and Data Warehousing. He
has worked with clients in many sectors of industry including Insurance,
Utilities, Telecommunications, Banking, and Government. He holds a
Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics from the University of
Massachusetts, at Amherst.

Title: PaaS is the Remedy for VM Hangover
Abstract: Virtualized hardware is all the rage in enterprise IT.
However, is a purely virtualization-focused, Infrastructure-as-a-Service
(IaaS) approach really the right one for enterprises and government?
What is becoming clear is that virtualization is but one piece of a much
bigger strategy for fast, self-service deployment and ultra-efficient
operations, referred to as “platform as a service” (PaaS). PaaS
leverages a wider set of middleware capabilities to enable application
deployment in minutes rather than days and reduces operational costs by
up to 90%. This general session will compare and contrast the IaaS and
PaaS approaches, discussing architectural and operational considerations
for PaaS using examples of best practices. It's a must-attend session
for anyone considering building a private cloud.
Presenter: Girish Venkat CISSP, is a Solutions
Specialist Manager in Oracle Public sector. He currently leads a team of
engineers focussed on providing design, architecture and deployment
support for Exadata and Cloud Computing. Girish has been with Oracle for
the last 5 years and has led teams focussed on identity management and
security. Prior to Oracle, Girish worked at Opsware/Loudcloud,
industry's first cloud computing company, where he managed a team of
engineers and helped deploy data center automation solutions for various
Fortune 500 companies. He has also worked in enterprise companies like
Netscape and Compuware as a Systems Engineer. Girish has a M.S in
Computer Science from University of Florida, Gainesville.
