I’m helping a colleague get OVD 11g up and running for an upcoming demo. We’re running on OEL 5 and I forgot to remind him to make sure to put the Oracle Validated package during install. If you don’t do this – you’ll most likely be missing some packages. An easy way to resolve this [...]
Another question from a colleague – suppose a user receives documents from two or more IRM services – how does the user switch between documents? Does the user need to manually log out of one service and log in to another so that the correct rights and restrictions apply? Do you need to clear your [...]
A colleague has been asking for some information about IRM auditing, so I thought I’d turn the response into a blog entry for the benefit of all. To summarise, a critical element of the Oracle IRM solution is the insight it provides into the usage of your sensitive information assets – even while they are [...]
I have been spending some time working on tuning continuous write load tuning on a Solaris 10/ZFS based system. One of the issues I observed is a drop in throughput every several seconds. Removing the fsync() calls from JE (you would never want to do this normally) smoothed out the dips in throughput which pointed [...]

Yesterday, on the personal front, I met with folks from Tethras and Sparkle Apps (the creators of the Jigsaw Box iPad app) at the [...]
Thank you.. i got it back.. luckily, my colleague have the copies of the package ddl…..

Oracle has been running the service for about 3 years now, and it [...]
Oracle's Frank Buytendijk discusses the work of his colleague Toby Hatch, and the conclusions she drew from her analysis of a survey of CIOs.
In this videoblog I discuss some work that a colleague of mine, Toby Hatch, did. Her analysis of a CIO Survey revealed interesting conclusions… Look at the videoblog here. frank
Everyone should read my UX colleague John Cartan’s usableapps piece about the iPad’s Natural User Interface at Work. Excellent analysis. Look at the key messages about the Natural User Interace (NUI): “A NUI is an interface that lets people use their natural behaviors to interact directly with information. I find that NUIs have four defining [...]
