The Virtual Technology Summit is a series of interactive online events with hands-on sessions and presenters answering technical questions. The events are sponsored by the Oracle Technology Network (OTN). These are free events but you must register.
Database -Mastering Oracle Database Technologies:
Oracle Database 12c delivers market-leading security, high performance, availability and scalability for Cloud application deployments. The OTN Virtual Technology Summit offers two Database tracks: one focused on Cloud application development and deployment practices and the other on the Developing and deploying .Net applications on the Oracle platform. Sessions focus on Oracle Database Cloud Services, Oracle .Net development tools and technologies and more.
Track One Sessions include:
Best Practices for Migrating On-Premises Databases to the Cloud: Oracle Multitenant is helping organizations reduce IT costs by simplifying database consolidation, provisioning, upgrades, and more. Now you can combine the advantages of multitenant databases with the benefits of the cloud by leveraging Database as a Service (DBaaS). In this session, you’ll learn about key best practices for moving your databases from on-premises environments to the Oracle Database Cloud and back again.
Master Data Management (MDM) Using Oracle Table Access for Hadoop: The new Hadoop 2 architecture leads to a bloom of compute engines including MapReduce v2, Apache Spark, Apache Tez, Apache Storm, Apache Giraph, Cloudera Impala, GraphLab, Splunk Hunk, Microsoft Dryad, SAS HPA/LASR, and Oracle Big Data SQL.Some Hadoop applications such as Master Data Management and Advanced Analytics perform the majority of their processing from Hadoop but need access to data in Oracle database which is the reliable and auditable source of truth. This technical session introduces upcoming Oracle Table Access for Hadoop (OTA4H) which exposes Oracle database tables as Hadoop data sources. It will describe OTA4H architecture, projected features, performance/scalability optimizations, and discuss use cases. A demo of various Hive SQL and Spark SQL queries against Oracle table will be shown.
Hot Tips: Mastering SQL Developer Data Modeler: Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler (SDDM) has been around for a few years now and is up to version 4.1. It really is an industrial strength data modeling tool that can be used for any data modeling task you need to tackle. Over the years I have found quite a few features and utilities in the tool that I rely on to make me more efficient (and agile) in developing my models. This presentation will demonstrate at least five of these features, tips, and tricks for you. I will walk through things like modifying the delivered reporting templates, how to create and applying object naming templates, how to use a table template and transformation script to add audit columns to every table, and using the new meta data export tool and several other cool things you might not know are there. Get SDDM installed on your device and bring it to the session so you can follow along.
Track Two Sessions include:
What's New for Oracle and .NET - (Part 1): With the release of ODAC 12c Release 4 and Oracle Database 12c, .NET developers have many more features to increase productivity and ease development. These sessions explore the following new features introduced in recent releases:
- Visual Studio 2015 and .NET Framework 4.6
- Entity Framework Code First and Code First Migrations
- NuGet installation
- Schema compare tools
- ODP.NET, Managed Driver
- Multitenant container database management
- ODP.NET application high availability
- Ease of .NET development features
Oracle product managers will present these sessions with code and tool demonstrations using Visual Studio 2015.

Oracle and .NET: Best Practices for Performance: This session explores .NET coding and tuning best practices to achieve faster data access performance. It presents techniques and trade-offs for optimizing connection pooling, caching, data fetching and updating, statement batching, and Oracle datatype usage. We will also explore using Oracle Performance Analyzer from Visual Studio to tune a .NET application's use of the Oracle Database end to end.
