Small Intermezzo Towards Miracle OpenWorld 2010

Submitted by marco on Tue, 2010-02-02 08:29

Created a small YouTube introduction movie as requested by Moans for the Miracle OpenWorld 2010 event this year. I am happy they more or less resolved their issues with Oracle Legal regarding the naming for the event (see the movie and news section on the Miracle OpenWorld 2010 main page).

Anyway, made a small attempt (in HD) to tell a bit about XML on YouTube.

As said:

    “An exploration in mending and gluing things together, while it absolutely doesn’t make any sense what I am saying, but then again, who cares…its bogus anyway…”

Hope to CU around somewhere this year.

I will be presenting the Oracle Wait Interface is Useless Dog and Pony show a couple of times this spring. It was first presented at the UKOUG 2009 with Tanel Poder, and will be seeing the light of day at the following events:

I hope to see some of you there, and will get the final part posted before RMOUG – so the picture will be complete. If you’ve got any questions, it’s a good opportunity to come and heckle at one of those events!

Craig Shallahamer is now blogging… check out his initial post here!

Earlier I had a few mail exchanges with him and got to check his new work.. called the Stress Identifier. Hmm.. so how it will be helpful? Well if you have already characterized your workload, you may want to definitively determine which internal database activity is stressing your CPU, IO, and network subsystems. So this tool will avoid the guess work of selecting that “unit of work”… check out the link for more details…
