Come meet the teams and explore our sessions!
Join an invitation-only customer roundtable and four sessions on building resilient AI applications with Oracle Globally Distributed Database and Oracle True Cache.
Building AI applications for a global audience requires decisions about where data lives, how applications serve users across regions, and how teams improve read performance while keeping data synchronized. These choices connect application availability, database design, and the practical demands of AI workloads.
At Oracle AI World 2026 in Las Vegas, explore those decisions through a customer roundtable, three learning sessions, and a hands-on lab focused on Oracle Globally Distributed Database and Oracle True Cache. The program brings together architectural guidance, practical exercises, and customer experience across OCI, multicloud, hybrid, and on-premises environments. Use the sessions to examine approaches relevant to your applications and bring your questions to the discussions.

Key Globally Distributed Database and True Cache sessions
Learning Session, LRN6088
Customer Success: NRI-CaaS on Oracle Globally Distributed AI Database
Tuesday, October 27, 2026
11:45 AM–12:30 PM PDT
See how global distribution and data sovereignty come together in a production application. NRI-CaaS, or Connector as a Service, connects companies to Catena-X, the European automotive ecosystem for standardized supply-chain data sharing. Its architecture spans four regional hubs, including Oracle EU Sovereign Cloud.
Wei Hu and Shinichiro Otsuka of Nomura Research Institute will explain how NRI-CaaS uses Oracle Globally Distributed AI Database to operate distributed data as a single logical database. Hear the design choices and practical deployment lessons behind supporting global transactions while keeping data in its required region.
Learning Session, LRN6009
Build Multicloud AI Apps That Never Go Down with Globally Distributed Database
Monday, October 26, 2026
11:30 AM–12:15 PM PDT
Explore how to design globally distributed AI applications while preserving SQL compatibility and control over data placement. This learning session examines a single logical database across OCI, multicloud, hybrid, and on-premises environments, with patterns for placing data closer to users and scaling high-volume transactional workloads.
Shailesh Dwivedi, Shuping Tien of PayPal, and Pankaj Chandiramani will discuss how operational data and AI Vector Search fit into these architectures. The focus is practical architectural guidance: connecting global distribution, application resilience, and intelligent application requirements while considering operational simplicity.
Learning Session, LRN6039
Your Cache Shouldn’t Create More Work: Accelerate AI Apps with Oracle True Cache
Tuesday, October 27, 2026
10:30–11:15 AM PDT
Improving read performance can introduce application work around consistency, invalidation, and cache management. In this session, Akash Guha of PayPal, Bill Lee, and Pankaj Chandiramani will explore Oracle True Cache, a SQL and object cache that remains automatically synchronized with Oracle Database.
Learn about automated data loading, continuous refresh, and deployment across OCI, other public clouds, hybrid environments, and on-premises systems. The session also examines semantic caching with Oracle AI Vector Search for RAG and AI inference. It connects the mechanics of keeping frequently accessed data close to applications with the needs of read-intensive and AI workloads.
Hands-on Lab, HOL6025
Build Always-On AI Apps with Oracle GDD or Accelerate AI with True Cache
Tuesday, October 27, 2026
10:00–11:30 AM PDT
Put the concepts into practice in a two-track hands-on lab led by Shefali Bhargava and choose the track that fits your application: build a globally distributed application with Oracle Globally Distributed AI Database, or explore Oracle True Cache for read-intensive and AI workloads.
The GDD track covers global data placement, intelligent routing, high availability, and scalable transactions. The True Cache track explores offloading database reads and accelerating SQL, JSON, AI Vector Search, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and AI inference with an automatically synchronized cache. Advanced participants can combine both technologies.
