Oracle OpenWorld 2013
Thursday, 18 July, 2013 06:51 Written by Brian B
Excited to attend Oracle OpenWorld 2013 !
I attended in 2012 as well and was overwhelmed with the technical presentations over the 5 days I attended.
Some details at OpenWorld
Over 2500 technical sessions, it’s difficult at times to pick out which discussions to attend given the large number of presentation topics. You end up running out of “day” before you run out of sessions.
Hands on labs, hundreds of Oracle partners, all concentrated in one place.
Take a peek at the link posted above….. it is quite a valuable series of presentations.
It will be a busy September, I attend the Oracle University Partner Summit in New Orleans prior to OpenWorld, get a day and a half at home, then out to San Francisco for OpenWorld. I’ll be immersed in Oracle for two weeks straight.
I’ll share my thoughts during both events here.
Oracle to stop developing Sun virtualization technologies
Tuesday, 16 July, 2013 06:52 Written by Brian B
In an effort to more tightly align Oracle’s future desktop virtualization portfolio investments with Oracle Corporation’s overall core business strategy, we have ended new feature development for Oracle Sun Ray Software (SRS), Oracle Virtual Desktop Infrastructure Software (VDI), Oracle Virtual Desktop Client (OVDC) Software, and Oracle Sun Ray Client hardware (3, 3i, and 3 Plus).
