RE: Who's going to OracleWorld?

Hi there,

In my opinion, there's a lot more to Oracle 10g than the "g". The server manageability and performance improvements are big, and they address real, here-and-now issues that affect all of us. If you need a reason for going to OracleWorld, that is it. The grid stuff is just the icing (frosting) on the cake.

Some of the "Oracle" presentations will involve independents. I'll be doing a presentation together with Rich Long entitled "Automatic Storage Management - The New Best Practice". Rich is one of the lead developers in the ASM group within Oracle. It'll be all practical - no hype. Nevertheless, this new feature is the one that I'm most excited about.

Subject: Who's going to OracleWorld?

With OracleWorld coming next week I am wondering if it is worth the trip to San Francisco.

I heard that most of the presentations are hyping Oracle Grid stuff, and that there will be very few "indepent" expert presenters. The IOUG only got to pick a few dozen presenters, and the rest are Oracle employees.

On the other hand, this Grid stuff might be cool. . . .
