| Enterprise Management Best Practices SIG |
Making the Most of the Enterprise Best Practices SIG |
The Enterprise Best Practices SIG provides Oracle users, Oracle development, industry advisors and vendors an idea marketplace to educate, suggest, debate and collaborate on pressing data management challenges. During this session, attendees will discuss news of the special interest group, opportunities for volunteering and feedback for bettering SIG activities and content. |
| Middleware Technologies SIG |
IOUG Middleware Technologies SIG Meeting |
Oracle is strategically focusing its energies on the Middleware Technologies, and providing a great level of support for this endeavour. The IOUG has committed to amalgamating the different areas of interest into a new Special Interest Group to provide and share information on the middleware set of technologies. This group was formed early in 2006, and a set of forums has been created in the SIG web site, for users of middleware technologies to share information. Come prepared to see Application Server / FUSION presentations. |

| Fusion Java Development SIG |
Part 1: Java Server Faces: Not Just Another Framework in the Crowd Part 2: The Tie That Binds: Introduction to ADF Bindings |
Part 1: Designing a web-based user interface using Java is a bit like using a sledgehammer to kill a fly. It can be done, but it’s a lot of work. Fortunately there are a number of coding frameworks available to assist the developer in this task. Unfortunately, due to the rapidly evolving Java landscape, choosing the right framework can itself become a major task. This decision can be further confounded when the tool vendors themselves cannot commit to a framework. What makes Oracle’s current framework of choice, JavaServer Faces (JSF), different is that it is a Java Community Process standard based on the best features of pre-existing frameworks, and was designed for use within development tools. This presentation will provide an introduction to JSF, providing attendees with the knowledge to assess its potential value to their development efforts. Part 2: The Model layer is the most innovative and remarkable technology in the Oracle Application Development Framework (ADF) stack. This presentation briefly reviews where ADF Model (ADFm) fits and how one of its components, ADF Bindings, allows you to quickly connect components from any user interface library such as ADF Faces. |

Conversion status from dictionary managed tablespaces to locally managed tablespaces. Backup solutions are all clients using RMAN? Does any site run cold backups anymore? Discussion about SGA – cache usage for all domains, millennium servers setup on non-prod domains. If you are using Cerner applications you don’t want to miss this meeting. |
| Spatial SIG |
North American Oracle Spatial SIG Meeting |
This meeting will include a board meeting from 10:45 am – 11:00, and then discussions on Oracle Spatial Implementation for Managers Oracle Spatial Best Practices and an Oracle Spatial Product demonstration. |
| SAP SIG |

| DWBI SIG |
IOUG DWBI SIG Presents: Oracle Business Intelligence Platform |
This session will focus on presenting Oracle as an integrated Business Intelligence platform rather than collection of tools for data warehousing, reporting, OLAP, data mining and other data deep dive. The speech will also give a demo like overview of the technology and also discuss how Siebel Analytics helps to extend this platform. The speech will also introduce the real time analytics and touch upon its importance in the world where the advertising and campaigns are changing due to DO NOT CALL lists, spam blockers, digital media recorders etc. |
| ApEx SIG |
IOUG Application Express (ApEx) SIG Meeting |
The very high interest level in Application Express has resulted in a huge community of developers, dbas, and IT managers thirsty for technical support and guidance. Oracle has responded with a focused effort to increase the quantity and quality of its web-based technical support and also its support to establish a user-based support community. In response, IOUG (in close cooperation with Oracle’s ApEx product development group) initiated the creation of the ApEx SIG to augment the technical support efforts of Oracle Corporation and form a virtual community for the ApEx tool users. Come and join us to learn more about the SIG and its value to you. |
| RAC SIG |
RAC SIG Birds of a Feather |
Calling all current and future RAC implementers! This is a great event to meet others running RAC/Grid. This event is sponsored by the Oracle RAC Special Interest Group as a non-formal way to meet your peers. Even if you are only considering running RAC or Grid, this is a great way to meet others that have already implemented it. This meeting will start with a very brief overview of the RAC SIG and what you can find at www.oracleracsig.org. We’ll then break into groups for mini-discussions. We’ll start with Operating System and/or hardware, then we’ll break into groups by area (Data Warehousing, OLTP, Provisioning, Extreme HA, Performance) and last, we’ll either do volume of data and/or number of nodes. |
| Life Sciences SIG |
Oracle Life Sciences User Group |
The Oracle Life Sciences User Group (OLSUG) represents a worldwide association of people who share a vested interest in the successful deployment and use of Oracle products within the life sciences industry. This meeting is designed to accelerate the success of users of Oracle products by providing a forum for sharing useful information and best practices, discovering novel and innovative practices, and exposing issues and limitations concerning Oracle products. The meeting will consist of interesting and thought provoking presentations from industry experts and Oracle. Topics will focus on distributed data access, integrating a variety of data types, managing vast quantities of data, and finding patterns and insights |
