Posted on October 27, 2015 by Mike.Dietrich OOW 2

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!!!

Roy and I were extremely happy yesterday as the room was full. Totally sold out. I’ve read on Twitter that some people wanted to go in and weren’t allowed to join as the room capacity was reached.

If you want to get the few slides for our first talk:

OOW 2015 – Upgrade and Migration Talks

Posted on October 23, 2015 by Mike.Dietrich OOW 0

Oracle Open World 2015 will kick off in a day and a bit.
And still some work to do 😉

A few things I would like to mention:

Our four HOLs are all overbooked already with many people on the waiting lists. You can always come by and wait in line at the Nikko Hotel’s Golden Gate lab room as some people don’t show up. But no guarantee. What I would recommend to you in case you are interested in the lab but didn’t get a seat:Come to our talk instead on Monday at 1:30pm as Roy and I

OOW 2015 Sessions and Labs – Oracle Open World

Posted on October 2, 2015 by Mike.Dietrich OOW 8

OMG … only a few weeks to go … Oracle Open World 2015 in San Francisco is coming closer and closer …

And this year will be really tough as we have a reduced number of people there – but more work to do as in previous years. 3 talks (2 for Upgrade, 1 for Data Pump), 4 labs (all in Nikko Hotel 15min walking distance from Moscone Center) – plus a good number of customer meetings already lined up. Plus the chance to meet so many great people … and not to forget the Data Warehouse Global Leaders …

OOW2014 – Upgrade in a Multitenant Environment

On Sept 30, 2014 at Oracle OpenWorld, Joseph Errede gave his excellent talk about all the tech details in catctl.pl focusing on what happens when you upgrade a multitenant environment. The presentation is very technical explaining many of the switches of catctl.pl.

Best Practices for Patching — learn more at OOW!

Posted on September 26, 2014 by Roy.Swonger OOW 4

Although upgrade and patching are truly two very different processes, they both fall into the same general category of planned maintenance and are often associated with each other. So, it seems relevant to point out yet another important talk at OpenWorld in San Francisco:

Database Patching Best Practices II [CON7748]

Tuesday, Sep 30, 5:00 PM – 5:45 PM – Moscone South – 104

Building on a highly popular session from Oracle OpenWorld

OOW 2014: Focus on Upgrades/Migrations

Posted on September 24, 2014 by Mike.Dietrich OOW 2

For our presentations and others around the topic of database upgrades and migrations please see our “Focus On …” listening – but there are also many others for different topics collected by the responsible Product Managers:

The whole set of “Focus On” documents that will
help you find sessions about any given topic? For example, you could take
a look at

Focus on Database Upgrade

Focus on Database Utilities: Data Pump, SQL*Loader,
Transportable Tablespaces

I hope you will find these useful as you plan what is sure to be a very, VERY
busy week!

OOW 2014 – Upgrade Hands-On-Lab at NIKKO HOTEL

Posted on September 9, 2014 by Mike.Dietrich OOW 1

This year’s Oracle Open World will be a real challenge logistically for us. Non-privileged employees were assigned to airport hotels only. So Roy, Joe, Dean and I stay >16 miles (>25km) away from Moscone Center. And to make things even more complicated due to some reconstruction at the Moscone Center (I hope they’ll get rid of their 1990s audio equipment and such) our Hands On Labs for instance are at the NIKKO Hotel, not at the Marriott Marquee anymore.

These are the dates for our HOL about How to upgrade to Oracle Database 12c and plug into Oracle …

OOW 2013: Recap – Thanks a lot!!!

Posted on October 10, 2013 by Mike.Dietrich OOW 0

OOW 2013 is over for a while now. And yesterday we’ve received the session results from our talk and the HOL. And we have to say Thank You Very Much! For your time, for the great discussions, for your feedbacks. This is the highest session count we’ve had in the past years.

Generally my overall feeling this year was that database sessions were very well attended – and the two sessions I wanted to see in my limited spare time were already sold out. And we’ve really had so many great discussion at our booth 007 – and Joe was …

Focus on Database Upgrade at OpenWorld 2013

Posted on August 29, 2013 by Roy.Swonger OOW 2

If you are going to Oracle OpenWorld in September, you might be overwhelmed by the sheer number of sessions throughout the week. For Oracle OpenWorld Logo those with an interest in database upgrade, I have prepared a Focus on Database Upgrade listing that lays out the sessions, demos, and hands-on lab for this area. Here is the listing thus far (NOTE: the list of sessions could change, so please check the document link at the start of OOW for the most current information!).

OOW Shanghai – Slides for the Migrate+Consolidate Talk

Posted on July 24, 2013 by Mike.Dietrich OOW 0

What a huge venue! My talk Migrate and Consolidate onto Oracle Database
12c was scheduled today in the BLUE HALL. I did walk around before to
see where the room is located and how big it is. Actually “room” is
the wrong word. It is more like a concert hall. But usually the problem
with such big venues is: if you have just a small number of people
showing up you feel pretty alone on the stage. I was thinking of bringing the guy on top of this blog entry with me – but that wasn’t necessary …

OOW Shanghai – Slides for Hands-On-Lab (HOL)

Posted on July 23, 2013 by Mike.Dietrich OOW 0

Dear all,

thanks for your participation on the Hands-On-Lab for Upgrade and Plugin to Oracle Database 12c today at OOW Shanghai 2013. It was a pleasure for me to work with you and my colleagues from Oracle China. And please forgive us the slowness of the machines. When I did shutdown the VBox images after the session I realized that some noncdb_to_pdb.sql scripts were still recompiling.

You’ll be able to download the slides:

OOW 2012:
Slides Download

Posted on October 8, 2012 by Mike.Dietrich OOW 0

Hm … you might ask yourself why there are no Oracle Database 12c slides available for download, neither in the OOW 2012 content system nor on our blog (and I believe nowhere else).

Simple reason: As long as Oracle Database 12c is not released and available we are not allowed to offer slides for download. Therefore people were simply taking pictures during the 12c sessions with their phones, iPods and cameras. Roy took a nice shot:

Sorry for that – we’ll make the content available as soon as Oracle Database 12c gets released.

In between you can download …

Kings of Leon & Pearl Jam – Appreciation Event

Posted on October 8, 2012 by Mike.Dietrich OOW 0

June 15, 1992 – that was actually the day when Pearl Jam played their first concert in Serenadenhof in my hometown, Nürnberg. Oups … that’s over 20 years ago … 😉

So I was so happy to get a ticket to this year’s OOW 2012 appreciation event on Treasure Island. Every year it amazes me over and over again how the organizers manage it logistically to bring almost 40,000 people to and back from the island. Food was … I would say fairly ok … and beer (as always) is not – actually even though I’m not a beer …

Deutsche Messe on their SAP Database Upgades

This Sunday Andreas Ellerhoff from Deutsche Messe (German Trade Fair) did report about Deutsche Messe’s SAP/Oracle database upgrades to Oracle Database 11.2 and their improvements in comparison to Oracle Database 10g. Presentation was well attended and attendees I’ve talked to later on gave very positive feedback.

Oh well … Oracle Open World 2012 is not far away anymore. Just a few weeks to go. And you might plan your travel currently or read a travel guide about San Francisco while we are finishing the work for our Hands-On-Lab image plus a detailed set of instructions, finalize our presentation slides and arrange customer meetings, breakfast, lunch and dinner appointments.

I really like going to San Francisco every year at least once as it is one of my favorite US cities – but Open World prep means really a lot of work, many late night shifts and plenty …
