Be sure to stop by our booth (#3,6,7,10) to say hello to our friends from the OakTable Network, and enter our draw to win the new Amazon Kindle with software provided by Cary Millsap (MR-Trace, MR-Tools & Method-R Profiler) and a pack of digital e-book downloads courtesy of Apress. Also slated is the RAC Attack workshop, which was first offered at Oracle Open World and UKOUG, and is now in its second year at RMOUG. Pythian is co-sponsoring this event with Apress and it’s a fun and informative way to learn from our experts how and when to properly build a RAC environment.

Session Title Speaker Date/Time Location Abstract
Database I/O Performance: Measuring and Planning Alex Gorbachev Feb 15th 9:15pm 404 As data volumes are growing exponentially these days, databases need to process more and more data in shorter amounts of time. Many disruptive technologies have also emerged such as flash-based storage, large server memory footprint, InfiniBand, etc. In such a rapidly changing environment, storage I/O performance tuning and planning easily becomes the task of applying best practices and “black magic” rules. In order to adopt a more sound, scientific approach to I/O performance diagnostics and planning, one needs to master the foundation – measuring I/O performance. This is exactly the focus of this presentation – practical I/O performance measurement and planning.
Monitoring MySQL with Oracle Cloud Control 12c Alex Gorbachev Feb 15th 1:15pm 405 Many production engineers are facing the need to manage heterogeneous environments, making a complete monitoring solution a critical component of today’s enterprise IT operations. Oracle Enterprise Manager provides end-to-end management for business applications, with plug-ins extending its management capabilities to an expanding variety of products. Free MySQL plug-in for Oracle Grid Control from Pythian has provided monitoring functionality for MySQL for years, but with the release of Oracle Cloud Control 12c, plug-ins can now become much more powerful and provide true management capabilities instead of plain monitoring. In this session, you will learn everything you need to monitor your MySQL database using your Oracle Enterprise Manager environment.
Exadata I/O Resource Manager – Ideal Technology for Database Consolidation Marc Fielding Feb 15 1:15pm 4B Resource management is the key to effective consolidation of multiple applications. Prior to Oracle Exadata Database Machine, there was no way to manage the highest-contention database resource: I/O capacity. In this session, discover how I/O Resource Management (IORM) is designed to allow a high-concurrency consolidated system to achieve predictable response times, even during peak usage.
Peering Through the Cloud: The Straight Goods on Oracle Exalogic Marc Fielding Feb 15 4:00pm 4C Oracle Exalogic promises an application platform that’s scalable, reliable, and extremely fast. This technical deep dive will dissect the components of the Oracle Exalogic Elastic Computing Cloud and find out how the high-band with low-latency interconnect and dense compute server hardware work together with Oracle JRockit, Oracle WebLogic Server, and Oracle Exalogic cloud management software. Find out which types of applications benefit most and least from Oracle Exalogic. Learn about how Oracle Exalogic’s cloud security and management infrastructure helps to efficiently share common resources in private cloud deployments.
Oracle 11g: Learning to Love the Automatic Diagnostic Repository Don Seiler Feb 16 9:45am 405 Oracle 11g has introduced a whole new system of collecting diagnostic information, the Automatic Diagnostic Repository, or ADR. Gone are the familiar bdump, cdump, and udump directories, all hail our new XML overlords! Where’s my alert log? And why on earth is it producing so much trace data?!? Like it or not, the ADR is here. It’s time to embrace it with both arms to get the most out of our Oracle Databases. In this session, learn about the core ADR features that every DBA will want to be familiar with, including file locations, retention policies, and using adrci to view alert log information with some helpful filters. You’ll also learn about the Incident Packaging Service (IPS) and go through a live demonstration of IPS for sending problem and incident packages to Oracle Support.
NoSQL Deep Dive Gwen Shapira Feb 16 1:30pm 401 NoSQL is a general name for a new type of database—one that throws away the relational model in favor of simplicity and scalability. This presentation aims to give you everything you need to know before adopting a NoSQL solution for your business. This session will review the concepts behind NoSQL databases, which problems it was designed to solve, when does it make sense to use it, and how to do so safely and effectively. The session will focus on Oracle’s NoSQL database announced in OpenWorld 2011 and will discuss the algorithms and design patterns it uses to provide high availability and scalability.
Making Sense of Big Data Gwen Shapira Feb 15 4:00pm 404 Hadoop is an open source framework for distributed data analysis. It is also a major part of Oracle’s recently announced Big Data Appliance. This presentation will discuss questions raised by traditional IT organizations as they are trying to move Hadoop from the development lab to the data center: Is Hadoop just another ETL tool? What unique value can Hadoop bring to the business? How does the data in Hadoop fit into data life cycle in the organization? And how can we connect the dots to arrive at a consistent and manageable BI architecture? This presentation is aimed at IT professionals who are interested in moving with their organization toward an era where big data is a strategic advantage.
