Passing Value Between Pages to Filter a View Object
A frequent question we get from beginners is how to I choose a value on one page and pass it to another page to show a specific record or set of records. In previous blog posts I showed how easy it is to do this when you are using the same view object on both pages - using the setCurrentRowWithKey operation, and In another entry I showed how to use an execute with params before a page loads to filter ...
Controlling Access To Security Vulnerability Information At Oracle
Hi, this is Shaomin Wang. I am sometimes asked how Oracle manages employee access to security vulnerability information. Obviously, technical information related to vulnerabilities in Oracle products is very sensitive; not only because this information may be related to unpatched vulnerabilities, but also because the technical nature of this information, if improperly disclosed or shared, could help malicious attackers develop exploit code targeting Oracle systems. Not surprisingly, Oracle has clear policies governing how this information can be accessed and used ...

Great Presentation - What is Google Chrome OS

So if you are looking for inspiration on how to make your next technical talk something people will want to remember instead ...
OWB 11GR2: Runtime Logging - Control Center Logs
Previously a colleague of mine discusses Logging for the OWB Design Client. In this article, I’d like to discuss logging for the OWB Runtime. In OWB 11GR2, besides the Control Center Service, we have expanded OWB Runtime with a new component that we called Control Center Agent. For this blog, we’ll discuss logging only on Control Center Service. In OWB 11gR2, the Control Center log files are by default located under <owb-home>/owb/log on the server where the Control ...
Value Chain Planning for Consumer Electronics
From a supply chain planning perspective, few industries are as challenging as Consumer Electronics. Consumer Electronics products have very short life cycles, must be delivered to market on-time or ahead-of-schedule to make money, are subject to cut-throat pricing and promotions, and must have a "cool" factor. While supply chain planning cannot help with the cool factor, it plays a big part in making sure manufacturers can get these products to the right place in the right quantities while the products ...
SQL To check Bundle Status
I am currently updating the Software Configuration Management series of documents for the latest practices and facilities in the product.

To sum it up, say you are a develoepr who ...

The shared artifacts can be found in the bin/soa-seed folder b) extraction of common parts into bin/common-sca-tools.xml, such as the import of common ...

Keeping your database statistics up to date
One of the most important pieces of advice I like to give customers is the fact that their database statistics should be kept to date. The Cost Based Optimizer (CBO) uses statistics in the database to decide the most efficient path to get the data for individual SQL queries. If the statistics are stale or incorrect then the CBO may pick a less optimal path. It may make the wrong decision with the wrong statistics. There are lots of articles ...

Mary Meeker: Mobile Is Exploding
In her annual presentation at the Web 2.0 Summit in San Francisco, Morgan-Stanley analyst Mary Meeker focused on the growth potential of the mobile internet. Her presentation is embedded below, and I suggest you skip ahead to slide 28. If you think about "reach" in terms of units produced over the last 50 years, we've gone from mainframes, to minicomputers, to PCs, to networked PCs, to smart phones. With each cycle the affordability, form-factor, and generalized utility affords greater adoption ...

Sizing an RTD installation - Part 3 (final)
Now that we know how to compute the number of requests per second and we have seen other things that need to be considered, we can finally compute the number of CPUs to cope with the desired load. This number is actually quite easy to compute. For planning purposes we usually account for 100 requests/second/CPU. This leaves enough room for higher peak loads or other underestimations in the process. In typical cases we see a higher throughput per CPU.For example, ...

Office 2007 files in SES 10.1.8.4
Following on from my previous article, here's another handy use for a document service.SES 10.1.8.4 cannot currently handle Office 2007 files formats (.docx, .pptx and .xlsx), but these can be handled by the filters in the latest versions of Oracle Text. The next release of SES will also use these new filters, and thus have full support for Office 2007. Meanwhile, if we should happen to have an installation of Oracle 11.1.0.7 database on the same machine as SES, we ...
