Oracle Fusion Middleware evangelist Omar Tazi, who focuses on the OSS area, recently gave a presentation to an Oracle users group that is well summarized by BMC Software blogger William Hurley here.This is one of the rare occasions where most of Oracle's OSS "non-strategy" is laid out, and rather accurately. (By "non-strategy" I mean: a strategy not to have a strategy. In a nod to common-sense practicality over dogma, Oracle encourages customers to use OSS in their stack...

A long time ago, when everyone wore a toga to work -- even when it wasn't Casual Friday -- the Roman philosopher Seneca advised that, "Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity." More recently, Bill Swanton -- whose attire is, I suspect, somewhat less casual than Seneca's -- offered this sage advice regarding what it will take to remain competitive in the very near future: Companies may see SOA and BPM in their future, but the ramp-up time to apply these...

Scoble comments that Oracle Blogs are on his regular reading list (although we have yet to become one of his "favorites"; working on that).My recent post about Oracle being a neglected stepchild in the mainstream blogging community caused something of a ruckus, which of course was partly my intention. I'm confident that I have motivated Oracle bloggers to be more aware of the wider blogosphere, and perhaps some in the latter to be more aware of the former. But regardless of...

The Oracle AppsLab team - a group of individuals (Paul Pedrazzi et al) within the Oracle Apps organization who are working hard to encourage community-building - has just externalized their new blog. This is definitely worth an RSS subscription. Paul & Co. are going to cover a litany of enterprise 2.0-related topics, not just Oracle Apps stuff.

Apparently there is quite an "OTN nation" in the Faroe Islands, between Iceland and Norway.Recently Oracle ACE Grant Ronald from the Forms team absconded there to lead a hands-on SOA/Java/Forms workshop, and he is confident that the entire developer community (numbering 33 Faroese) was in attendance:According to one of them, Michael Thomsen of Faroese Telecom, "Even though the Faroe Islands is a small nation in terms of population, our infrastructure for supporting the...

A nice tandem announcement: The Underground PHP Oracle Manual 1.4 has been published, and Zend Core for Oracle 2.0 is out. On top of that, a couple weeks ago we published a nice two-part guide to creating PHP apps that use database-based authentication (specifically, the venerable Virtual Private Database feature).The OPAL stack (see Chris Jones' great blog on this subject) is really becoming a nice alternative to LAMP, in situations where it makes sense to explore one. (The...
