AUSOUG Conference Perth, November 2014
What a great conference – there’s been a lot of praise for the organisers and all the speakers. I haven’t missed a conference since I started 15 years ago, and I hope it keeps going (in one form or another) for a long time to come.
This year I attended the following sessions (some titles changed for effect):
Björn Rost – 12c for DBAs and Developers; FDA (time to drop those journal triggers)
Scott Wesley – CSS & JQuery hands-on lab; 5 Security & Performance Techniques
Branka Njegich & Craig Purser – a Case Study about building a very slick Tablet app in Apex
Martin Power – how to recover from data block corruption (where I realised it’s about time I learned this “rman” thing)
Connor McDonald – 12c for Developers in only 1,000,000 slides
Penny Cookson – OHarmony (or, how to find a tall, dark DBA…)
Tim Hall – Performance Mistakes; PL/SQL Function Call Performance
Gavin Soorma – How to Migrate your Data to 12c
If you are interested, you can review the slides from my presentation here: Building Maintainable Applications in Apex. Whether or not you agree with all my points, I hope it at least makes you think 🙂
