Engineered Systems: Oracle's Vision for the Future | Ralf Dossmann
Oracle's Exadata and Exalogic are impressive products in their own right. But working in combination they deliver unparalleled transaction
processing performance with up to a 30x increase over existing legacy systems, with the lowest cost of ownership over a 3 or 5 year basis
than any other hardware. In this session you'll learn how to leverage Oracle's Engineered Systems within your enterprise to deliver
record-breaking performance at the lowest TCO.

10:00 am - 10:30 am
Securing Public and Private Clouds | Anton Nielsen
Long before the term "Cloud Computing" existed, Oracle technologies supported and promoted the concept. Centralized data with remote users
has been at the core of these technologies for decades. The public cloud, and extending private clouds to the internet, though, has added
security challenges never imagined decades ago. This presentation will examine a real life security breach and introduce architecture,
technologies and policies to secure public and private clouds.

Breakout Sessions
(pick one)
Cloud Computing - Making IT Simple | Scott Mattoon
The road to Cloud Computing is not without a few bumps. This session will help to smooth out your journey by tackling some of the potential
complications. We'll examine whether standardization is a prerequisite for the Cloud. We'll look at why refactoring isn't just for
application code. We'll check out deployable entities and their simplification via higher levels of abstraction. And we'll close out the
session with a look at engineered systems and modular clouds.
Salon E
Innovations in Grid Computing with Oracle Coherence | Rob Misek
Learn how Coherence can increase the availability, scalability and performance of your existing applications with its advanced low-latency
data-grid technologies. Also hear some interesting industry-specific use cases that customers had implemented and how Oracle is integrating
Coherence into its Enterprise Java stack.
Salon C
11:30 am - 12:15 pm
Breakout Sessions (pick one)
Enterprise Strategy for Cloud Security | Dave Chappelle
Security is high on the list of concerns for many organizations as they evaluate their cloud computing options. This session will examine
security in the context of the various forms of cloud computing. We'll consider technical and non-technical aspects of security, and
discuss several strategies for cloud computing, from both the consumer and producer perspectives.
Salon E
Oracle Enterprise Manager | Avi Huber
Much more than a DB management tool, Oracle Enterprise
Manager provides management and monitoring coverage for the entire Oracle stack,
and beyond. This session will concentrate on the middleware management
functionality in OEM, starting with Real User Experience monitoring, through
AppServer management, and into deep-dive Java diagnostics. We’ll discuss Business
Driven Application Management (BDAM) and the benefits of top-down monitoring.
Lastly, we’ll demonstrate how to trace a specific user experience problem,
through a multitier SOA application, to its root cause, deep in the JVM.

(pick one)
Oracle Cloud Reference Architecture | Anbu Krishnaswamy
Cloud initiatives are beginning to dominate enterprise IT roadmaps. Successful adoption of Cloud and the subsequent governance challenges
warrant a Cloud reference architecture that is applied consistently across the enterprise. This presentation will answer the important
questions: What exactly is a Cloud, why you need it, what changes it will bring to the enterprise, and what are the key capabilities of a
Cloud infrastructure are - using Oracle's Cloud Reference Architecture, which is part of the IT Strategies from Oracle (ITSO) Cloud
Enterprise Technology Strategy (ETS).
Salon E
21st Century SOA | Peter Belknap
Service Oriented Architecture has evolved from concept to reality in the last decade. The right methodology coupled with mature SOA
technologies has helped customers demonstrate success in both innovation and ROI. In this session you will learn how Oracle SOA Suite's
orchestration, virtualization, and governance capabilities provide the infrastructure to run mission critical business and system
applications. And we'll take a special look at the convergence of SOA & BPM using Oracle's Unified technology stack.
