Sign up for Our Sessions at Oracle DatabaseWorld at CloudWorld

The content catalog for this year’s Oracle DatabaseWorld at CloudWorld is now ready. Overall there are more than 1.000 sessions, and almost 300 of those are strictly database related.

You can now start to add sessions to your schedule. I suggest that you hurry up and get started. Some of the sessions will for sure sell out quickly, especially the hands-on labs.

Sign up before it’s too late!

I have created an overview of all the sessions hosted by Database Upgrade, Migration and Patching. If you enjoy sessions by Mike Dietrich, Rodrigo Jorge, Roy Swonger or Bill Beauregard, add all of them to your schedule.

My Sessions

Best Practices for Upgrade and Migration to Oracle Database 23c

Usually, our most popular talk. What are the best practices for upgrading your Oracle Database and which of those best practices apply to database migrations as well? In Oracle Database 23c, you must migrate to the multitenant architecture; we will also discuss this. Presenting with us is Marco Oberli from Postfinance in Switzerland. They made some cool automation to upgrade their databases and allow users to provision copies for test and developer with the click of a button.

No-Slide Zone – Database Patchings Insights

No slides at all – it’s an open discussion about patching Oracle Database and Grid Infrastructure. Bring all your questions, and together we will work it out. This is definitely my personal favorite. I always learn so much from all these great questions and discussions. Plus, it’s usually a lot of fun.

Help! My Database Is Still on 8i!

We are often involved in migrations of really old databases. Not just 11g or 10g. Even older! Recently we had a question about Oracle7. We have demos to show how to migrate from those old databases. Also, we spin up an Oracle 8i database. Do you remember how to connect? How to take a backup? Finally, we dig into our archives and find a few horror stories. On stage is also Julian Dontcheff from Accenture. He also has some horror stories to share.

Upgrade and Migrate to Oracle Database 19c and 23c the Easy Way

Our all-time favorite hands-on lab got an overhaul for this year’s event. If you are afraid of plan changes after an upgrade, come to this session. You will learn how to avoid that and keep your users happy. Also, we will guide you to upgrade and migrate your databases.

Remember to bring your laptop

See You There

I really hope to see you at Oracle DatabaseWorld at CloudWorld. Remember to come by our demo booth and have a talk about Oracle Database.

We have so many exciting things to share. It’s a shame to miss out on the greatest Oracle Database event of the year.

Did You Sign Up For Oracle CloudWorld Yet?

Oracle CloudWorld takes place in Las Vegas, September 18-21. Before the summer holiday season kicks in, you should get a ticket and mark your calendar for the coolest Oracle event of the year.

This year will be even better!

Our Sessions and Labs

I am very excited about the plans we have for Oracle CloudWorld. My team (like most other teams at Oracle) works really hard to prepare new content for you. We will have brand-new sessions and hands-on labs ready.

Currently, this is our confirmed session:

And our hands-on labs:

And we will repeat our very popular no-slide zone on patching GI and database:

Is that it? Of course not; we have more in the pipeline. It’s just waiting for a final confirmation. Keep an eye out on the session catalog; we update it constantly.

Master Classes

In addition, we have something new and special for you this year – a 4-hour top-notch learning experience.

  • Oracle Database Upgrade and Performance Tuning Master Class

You’ll leave this master class knowing how to use all the tools in your toolbox to ensure great database performance after your upgrade.

We have taken as much knowledge as we can and compiled it into an intense 4-hour learning experience. It’s our course, and we will be there to train you. This is a unique opportunity.

Check out the details and other training classes at the Pre-Event Training page.

Free Digital Training and Certification

Registering for Oracle CloudWorld gives you access to free digital training on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Cloud Apps. After that, you can take free certification exams as well. All part of the deal.

You can start your learning experience now – and then complete it with sessions at Oracle CloudWorld. This is a great opportunity.
