IOUG April 18-22, Toronto

2003-09-16 Thread Boivin, Patrice J
I asked my manager if I can go, maybe I can present a paper.

Now I just have to decide what topic to present on.

I don't want to do something that is on the bleeding edge, I want to do
something that would be useful to the largest number of people.  

I leave the marketing to Oracle Corp., they know the newer products best it
seems to me.  I am not a concepts person, I don't go by the product
descriptions and features, I go by practical experience. (aka Trial by Fire)

Right now we are still planning / testing a migration to 9iAS 9.0.2. on
Windows (I know, no comments please), maybe I can do a paper on how to
install, configure, secure, and manage 9iAS effectively.

If you have any other suggestions, don't hesitate to mention them -- what
would be most useful to you at your site?

Do I ever want to go to this conference!

Patrice.

Yes, a presentation type solving and avoiding problems during 9iAS R2
installation would definitely be interesting topic, since 9iAS R2
installation is anything else than simple and problem free.

I'll be hopefully speaking there as well, about E-Business Suite and
database topics.

Everyone:

  Speaking as a Focus Area Manager, we are missing the following types of
presentations:

1. Presentations for beginners, i.e.: the basics  - too many of our
presenters concentrate on the intermediate or advanced.  Let me tell you
that we WANT to see more beginner presentations.
2. Troubleshooting type presentations helping users diagnose both
performance and development problems.
3. REAL Advanced presentations and not ones that you think are advanced.
Comments returned over the past few years indicate that the advanced'
presentations are not as advanced as stated.  
4. Tighter quality sessions that offer concrete technical value and ROI for
our audience.

Should be enough

RE: IOUG April 18-22, Toronto

2003-09-16 Thread Karniotis, Stephen
OK.  Lots of great replies to my email.  Instead of replying to each one,
here is a complete reply to everyone:

1.  How basic?  I teach a basics of relational database class for LOW
level users.  I teach a basics of SQL class.  THAT basic? April Wells 
SPK == The answer is yes.  Too many presentations focus on advanced
topics.  I believe we need more basic SQL instruction, especially for folks
new to the whims of the Oracle optimizer.  

2.  We are currently working on conversion of 8.1.6 to 9.2.0.4.  I come
up with the idea to do the following:
1) create new 9i database using LMT ASSM etc.
2) use DataBee tool to create script to define all tables.
3) change the create script so each table will go into its place into the
new database.
4) do import of table data only with ignore=y indexes=no constraint=no.
5) do import with rows=no to recreate all index, constraint etc.
6) new 9i database with all the new goodies working.  
Do you think that this is a good topic for presentation?
Yechiel Adar

SPK ==  This is more of a process presentation and should be a good intro
presentation.  However, this may not cover the required hour.  This could be
a quick tip presentation or, if expanded, may qualify for a Technical
Session.  Expand your concept a bit to appear to a broader audience.

3.  Saw your oracle-l posting and thought I'd email you.  Are you
looking for any presentations on RAC, Storage, or Linux?  I'd love to
present, but its hard for me to justify going to my CEO if the presentation
I'd be giving
wouldn't be on one of our core competencies.  Any suggestions would be
welcome.  Matthew Zito

SPK ==  This is a good presentation provided that is not a sales job on RAC
or on your product.  These must be technical presentations.  Sorry to be
harsh, but the reality is that several vendors have given presentations and
they end up being sales presentations for their products.  We yank them off
the schedule, or remove them from voting entirely.
