Here are some high availability documents for the Denver AIA Foundation Pack class. Enjoy!
Fusion Middleware HA Presentation
I must say, Collab08 went really well. Since I was teaching and/or helping with the hands-on labs, I can't say I got to see much outside our bit, but the people I did see expressed genuine interest and a high degree of understanding of our Fusion Middleware for Apps initiative.
Additionally, I'd like to thank OAUG Fusion-council co-chair and blogger Floyd Teter for his evaluation of the E-Biz session in his ORCLville blog.
Each time we do these mini-sessions in a conference or in our full-blown 4 day boot camps, more people get excited about the apps integration story of the Fusion Middleware products.
For those of you that missed out - we hope to see you down the road. If you are a member of the Oracle Partner Network and either would like to attend one of our PTS bootcamps or even need help with a client project, drop me a line and I'll get you in touch with the appropriate people.
Thanks, Denver for a good time and even a little snow!
PTS Members to Present Fusion Middleware with Apps
I, along with several other members of PTS, will be in Denver this April at the Collaborate 2008 conference. We will be presenting 9 sessions on how to utilize Oracle Fusion Middleware products such as BPEL PM, JDeveloper, and Enterprise Service Bus with various Oracle Applications. Learn the basics and concepts to the creation of your client's or organization's SOA strategy.
These nine sessions will be broken up into separate classes focusing on either Oracle's E-Business Suite, PeopleSoft, Siebel, and JD Edwards.
These sessions will include a Fusion Middleware overview, demo, and hands on labs. If you are planning to attend the Collaborate08 conference I highly recommend these sessions.
If you were not planning to attend the conference, now you have a reason!
See you in Denver.

OFMW 11g Tech Preview Released within JDeveloper 11g
The SOA Product team has just released the SOA Suite 11g Technology Preview completely integrated within the JDeveloper 11g preview. That's right....one install. <This is me clapping. OK. I'm good now>
Right now your asking "How, Chuck? How do I get my hands on this software?" I'm glad you asked. Read on, my friends.
First of all, yes it is available for Windows AND Linux clients. You can download the software
HERE
You can't have software without
Documentation and Collateral
And you certainly would not expect any bit of enterprise software to work without
Prerequisite Software
Download. Install. DO THE DEMOS. And report back. This is what technology previews are all about. You get to see the new features in advance of a release for education and planning purposes and YOU get to tell Oracle what works and what doesn't.
Have fun. And I hope all of you had a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.

Social Networking Goes Corporate
The guys at AppsLab have taken the social networking craze inside the Oracle firewall.
As Facebook, MySpace, and LinkedIn have competed to make us more social
by putting us in front of our computers more, a new opportunity has
presented itself within corporate communications.
Corporate
relationships are much the same as social relationships. Several
companies have already started their own networking sites connecting
current and past employees. A very distributed organization like
Oracle stands to benefit greatly by leveraging the SN business model as
an internal collaboration tool. I can see this tied in with Webcenter
or any other portal product already.
As this is an internal product, I must apologize to the vast majority of you. Oracle employees - get logged in.
- Ferris Bueller highly recommends "Connect"

What is PTS ?

After careful consideration and some very (un)scientific research, I have come up with a theory that this whole global warming thing is probably related to the blogosphere. Both terms seemed to hit our collective vernacular at approximately the same time.
Coincidence?........ I think NOT.
Since I have not been a part of this so-called blogoshphere since its inception, my lack of contribution may be partially responsible for a hole that has been causing climate change.
My bad.
I hope to rectify the situation. And while my theory may be way off, I want to do my part. Check back often. I hope to post some things of interest. Well...."interesting" is a relative term.

He doesn't chase storms, however, as he'd probably run the first time a tornado dropped a cow in his general vicinity. He is currently using his crazy weather skills to keep a storm system away from IAD so he can jet back home.
