Advert: Chris Date – SQL and Relational Theory – How to Write Accurate SQL Code

OK, so I know it’s yet-another-advert but hopefully the balance between a few technical posts (finally) and adverts is ok for now. Besides, I only ever post adverts for events that I think will be good and if it’s a mate’s like Peter Robson organising them, so much the better. I think this event looks [...]

Advert: Michigan Oak Table Symposium registration open

Registration for MOTS is now open. If you fancy a couple of days intense learning from some of the best Oracle minds, or simply some chat about Cuddly Toys over a few beers prior to going to Oracle Openworld, sign up now for a mere $450. I talked about it more here.
Updated later – Title [...]

Advert: OUG Scotland DBA SIG

I see the latest event at home is just around the corner. I’ll be away at the Hotsos Symposium so won’t be able to attend, but it looks like good stuff if you can manage to get along to it!

Advert: Symposium Countdown

I submitted my slides last Friday so the Hotsos Symposium countdown has really started now – I’ll be presenting in just under 4 weeks time. I’m looking forward to it even more than I was for a couple of reasons.
1) I noticed from Kerry Osborne’s blog post that he’s now doing two presentations. I was [...]

Advert: More Conference News

I know the Hotsos Symposium must be approaching because I’ve been in bed the last couple of days with a cold. Fortunately this one didn’t arrive in the final week of preparation, but it’s still been unpleasant and I could have done without it.*
Anyway, I see that the word is finally out about MOTS – [...]

Advert: Busy, Busy …

A quick post from a hotel room in Bratislava (and very nice both are, too, although it’s difficult to judge a city in the dark) ….
Tomorrow I’m teaching the 2-day performance course for Oracle University.
Next week I’m giving two presentations at the annual UKOUG conference in Birmingham (Alex, Marco and Tom do that one [...]

Advert of sorts: Canada, UKOUG, Chile, Peru, Poland…

For all events between now and the end of the year, my speaking schedule is published on asktom.oracle.com. This post hi-lights the “international” (for me, if you live there – it is local of course…) trips I’ll be doing. You can see all of the US only trips on asktom as well – [...]

Blatant advert: Yes, we still do Oracle Forms development and training

Blatant plug for SAGE Computing Services. Avert your eyes now if you’re not interested in the advert.
I was again asked today by a fellow Oracle professional, as we at SAGE present and blog on the latest JDeveloper and APEX technologies among others, does that mean we’ve dropped Oracle Forms development and teaching our Oracle [...]
