During June, the worldwide Oracle ACE community shared tips and tricks, insights, and knowledge in over 300 blog posts. Let us highlight some of them for you to read and enjoy, focusing on 23ai, APEX, OCI, JSON, EPM, Linux, and much more.
Oracle APEX has been a game-changer in the low-code application development domain, enabling developers to build robust applications rapidly. Oracle recently released Apex version 24.1 which is loaded with AI features.
Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio (ODT for VS) is a suite of free, integrated tools provided by Oracle Corporation to streamline and enhance the development of applications using Oracle databases within Microsoft’s Visual Studio environment.
In Enterprise Data Management, approval policies can be configured with the Management Hierarchy approval method to invite approvers based on a hierarchy of users defined in a Users type application.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is buzzing in today’s enterprise circles. Let’s briefly examine using AI in data integration, specifically with Oracle GoldenGate. First, what are the benefits of AI in data integration?
Database auditing is a critical component of data security, providing vital insights into user activity, changes made to the database, and potential threats lurking within the system.
Oracle 23ai (formerly known as Oracle 23c) is the next long-term release of the Oracle Database. Beginning of May 2024, the general availability was announced.
The 23ai was released last month and was only available at Oracle Cloud deployments and a few places for free edition, nothing besides that. Last year it was also released (focused on the Devs) as a formerly 23c free edition. Fortunately, it was released to be used at ExaCC. So, now we can upgrade Grid Infrastructure (GI) and install the database to play with it.
Patching is the most significant feature of ADT. You can do a lot of cool things in ADT, but patching is the coolest one. I call this automated patching, because typically I don’t have to intervene and I can deploy a patch without any change.
With the release of APEX 24.1, Generative AI has come to APEX. Several new AI features are immediately useful to anyone looking to incorporate Generative AI into their APEX Apps.
As you may know, Oracle APEX 24.1 is now generally available, and I started to spot the new features. One of them is the improvement in file downloads with a brand new dynamic action, page process type and a PL/SQL API! Let’s take a look at that.
If you’re using an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) account and have Oracle APEX in an Autonomous Database, this article is for you. Whenever a new version of Oracle APEX is released, you might notice a message about Available Updates.
An old truth in Oracle and just about all relational databases has been that an update on one row by one session will block an update by another session on the same row. Until the first session commits or rolls back. That is until 23ai.
If you’ve been following the buzz in the Oracle community, you know that Oracle APEX is about to drop its latest version, and they’re promising some jaw-dropping GenAI features.
By leveraging the full capabilities of OCI’s VCN, subnets, and security lists, organizations can achieve a robust, secure, and efficient cloud network infrastructure that meets their specific requirements.
I have worked with several clients who rely heavily on time zone data and processing it correctly. If you have columns in your database which are defined as TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE, you need to understand what the relevance is relating to the time zone in your database.
Creating an Oracle APEX workspace on the public instance at (https://apex.oracle.com) is a straightforward process. Below are the step-by-step instructions.
In the last episode, we looked at some new features in Oracle Database 23.4. The IslandSQL grammar now covers all statements that can contain static DML statements and code in PL/SQL and PL/pgSQL.
This year has been incredibly successful in terms of professional achievements and personal growth. One of the major milestones of my career was being recognized as an Oracle Ace Pro for 2023-2024.
Inference in this case is the process of using pre-trained and/or fine-tuned pre-trained Generative AI models to generate output based on your input prompts.
For this blog post I will be using an Oracle Linux 8 server and a Pure Storage FlashArray to demonstrate how block volumes can be presented to an Oracle Linux 8 database server via iSCSI.
