Just finished my Birds of a Feather XMLDB panel session in the Marriott Hotel and now looking back on an event full day. It all started of with a Keynote session with among others Mark Hurd. the most interesting bit, in my honest opinion, was the announcement of more details in Oracle 12c. I will …
I saw, while fiddling with this site that a small anniversary was in order. Although I started blogging, as an alternative keeping at bay hundreds of SQL and shell scripts, somewhere in 2004 on the technology.amis.nl site, this site came to light around the 1st of April in 2007, 5 plus years ago. Initially it
People who have attended the UKOUG presentation this year where Mark Drake, Sr. Product Manager XML Technologies / XMLDB, Oracle HQ, and I demonstrated the first principles of the XDB Repository, might have been impressed with its (GEO/KML Spatial, Image EXIF info) capabilities combined with Google Earth. This post will zoom in on how to
Last Thuesday, Mark Drake, Senior Product Manager and I, delivered a good presentation during UKOUG in Birmingham about how to use your database, via XMLDB functionality, as a file server. The presentation demonstrated as well how you could extent the “standaard” file server (aka your database) functionality with features like, WebDAV driven ACL Security and
Since a long time, the database has had some versioning capabilities, long before features like “Edition Based Redefinition” in Oracle 11gR2 appeared. This versioning, via XMLDB functionality, is based on its XDB Repository access to the database. The XDB Repository is a file/folder metaphor that acts as a file server. You can enable this functionality
Last day of Oracle Open World and I am currently attending the last presentations. The first presentation, “Oracle XMLDB: A noSQL Approach to Managing all your Unstructured Data”, deals with the no-SQL approach and using Oracle XML DB in the context of using it with “Big Data”, that is unstructured data. The title of the …
As a placeholder here a small post regarding my interview about Oracle XMLDB functionality and its use-cases via the Dutch Oracle magazine called “Optimize” for September.

I just made use of the very cool OTN Virtual Developer Day Database site. In this environment you can follow OTN Developer Day sessions, for example, at home, while making use of all the material available on that site plus the downloadable Virtualbox OTN Developer Day Appliance. Despite you can choose for tracks like Java, .Net, APEX, there is also a database section which handles (as you might expect it from me regarding interest) Oracle XMLDB functionality.
Although not a “pure” XML partitioning example, that is partitioning data on criteria within the XML document, and before I forget to mention this exercise, I would like to point out the following URL:
http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=2234618
This small exercise was setup based on questions / comments from a reader on this blog regarding the ”
Structured XMLIndex (Part 3) – Building Multiple XMLIndex Structures” content after heaving trouble to setup structured and unstructured local XMLIndexes.
The forum link demonstrates howto:

For all those to see and learn what you can do when combining the power of Oracle XMLDB and Oracle APEX an alternative APEX XFILES application is now available for download via http://xace.sourceforge.net. It is based on the combined efforts of Mark Drake and Carl Backstrom to convert the XMLDB XFILES demo application towards APEX. This “XFILES APEX Community Edition”, XACE for short to make a distinction with the more sophisticated official XFILES XMLDB demo application, demonstrates an implementation of versioning based on DBMS_XDB_VERSION and APEX as UI.
Also for Roel Hartman and me, its an exercise to demonstrate what you can learn while “standing on the shoulders of giants”. Also, in the spirit of Carl Backstrom, we want to share our knowledge with the comminity and give “it” back in the hope you will also get excited of these two very powerful options in the Oracle database.
We use this XACE application to help us with our presentation to demonstrate APEX versioning so if you are interested and have the chance see us (and ask questions afterwards) during Kaleidoscope 2011 or (shameless plug here) vote for us on Oracle mix so we are able to present these techniques on Oracle Open World this year as well (“XFILES, The APEX 4 version – The truth is in there“).
The more important below…
Download the XFILES XMLDB source via: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/features/xmldb/index.html (among others webservices, geo location app, version control and more)
You can also download the OTN Developer Days Virtualbox environment to play with a fully installed XMLDB XFILES appl. (example 3 of the “Oracle By Example” XMLDB series).
Last but not least…
If you like it, in the light of the community
…and if you really like the effort done, by the community, donate some of your bucks on “Carl’s Memorial Fund” ! (more info here: http://carlback.blogspot.com/ or under the “donate” link of http://xace.sourceforge.net).
Hope you have some fun with it.
On behalve of…
