OTN Tour

Gracias, obgrigado … Montevideo, Buenos Aires, Brasilia and Sao Paolo

Posted on August 16, 2019 by Conference 0

This was a long trip – but as usual, traveling to South America is wonderful. So it time to say gracias, obgrigado … Montevideo, Buenos Aires, Brasilia and Sao Paolo. I’m so happy that I’ve been invited to speak at the OTN Groundbreakers LAD South Leg Tour 2019. Believe me, it is really hard to fly back after such intense 10 days.

Gracias, obrigado!

But Id like to thank many people. It was an awesome tour again. I participated for the forth time. And I learned a lot again. From customers who discussed their upgrades and migrations with me. From the other presenters who did a terrific job.

OTN Tour Latin America 2016 is ready to take off

And for me it’s the first time in 4 years that I won’t be able to participate. Which is very sad as it is such a great thing to meet all these wonderful people, not only from the User Groups doing all the orga stuff but also discussing with customers, learning from skilled and knowledgeable co-presenters, the entire travel, the wonderful cities … I miss this already. Maybe next year …

Nevertheless, the Database Upgrade team will present – and thanks to the tour organizers for accepting the talks of …

Recap – OTN Tour EMEA – Baku, Azerbaijan – 2016

Posted on May 17, 2016 by Slides Workshop 3

Working on a Saturday is not common for me but happens from time to time mostly when I travel abroad or when a customer has a critical upgrade or migration on a weekend.

Having 120 skilled and enthusiastic people in a conference day on a Saturday is VERY UNCOMMON. And having them stay from 9am to 6pm is a sign that the selection of topics fit the interest of the audience – and the presenters got their attention the entire day.

Please find the slides and the Hands-On-Lab here:

Beijing, Seoul – and OTN Tour Tokyo – just in one week

Posted on November 6, 2014 by Travel Workshop 0

Uhhh … next week will be a tough traveling experience. 19870 km (12347 mi), all in cattle class on 4 different airlines.

I tried to avoid Lufthansa as they canceled recently flights I heavily relied on – with no reason! And there’s still a huge risk of announcing just their 9th strike within a year and a bit.

But I’m really looking forward to the workshops, to see all the colleagues, customers and of course some great friends. Roy and I will do two internal two-day workshops in Beijing and Seoul with each more than 50 participants – and …

The Nordics OTN ACE Tour 2013 with stops in Stockholm, Ballerup/Copenhagen and Oslo is over. A very intense week with plenty of excellent presentations from Lonneke Dikmans, Sten Vesterli, Tim Hall and others. I’m always impressed how much those people know and how good they present. It’s such a great learning experience. And there’s always some time to talk about weired things apart from the Oracle cosmos. So thanks a lot, folks – it was a pleasure to travel with you.

And many many thanks also to the people from ORCAN, DOUG and OUGN. …
