Solutions to secure data at the source, reduce risk and simplify compliance
The Oracle Database
Security Workshop is a one-day hands-on session for IT Managers, IT Security
Architects and Oracle DBAs who are looking for solutions to address their
information protection, privacy, and accountability challenges within their

continue to be challenged tosecure information against loss and protect the
integrity of sensitiveinformation like critical financial data, personally

Big Data & What are we still doing wrong with Tom Kyte
Tom Kyte is a Senior Technical
Architect in Oracle's Server Technology Division. Tom is the Tom behind the
AskTom column in Oracle Magazine and is also the author of Expert Oracle
Database Architecture (Apress, 2005/2009) among other books
Abstract: Big Data
The term "big data" draws
a lot of attention, but behind the hype there's a simple story. For decades,
companies have been making business decisions based on transactional data
stored in relational databases. However, beyond that critical data is a
potential treasure trove of less structured data: weblogs, social media, email,
sensors, and photographs that can be mined for useful information. This
presentation will take a look at what Big Data is and means - and Oracle's
strategy for handling it
Abstract: What are we still doing
wrong?
I've given many best practices
presentations in the last 10 years. I've given many worst practices
presentations in the last 10 years. I've seen some things change over the last
ten years and many other things stay exactly the same. In this talk - we'll be
taking a look at the good and the bad - what we do right and what we continue
to do wrong over and over again. We'll look at why "Why" is probably
the right initial answer to most any question. We'll look at how we get to
"Know what we Know", and why that can be both a help and a hindrance.
We'll peek at "Best Practices" and tie them into what I term
"Worst Practices". In short, a talk on the good and the bad.
