Apparently, there’s this big Oracle conference coming up in a few weeks… A recent wave of emails have been requests to profile certain OpenWorld 2008 events. In addition to the sessions that I’ll be personally involved in, in some capacity or another, here are some EBS techstack-related things going at OpenWorld this year that you’ll want to add to your calendar:
Applications Lounge sessions for E-Business Suite Tools & Technology
Senior Oracle Development staff from a variety of areas take your questions in a open roundtable discussion
These were called “Meet-the-Expert” sessions in OpenWorld 2007
Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 Upgrade (Technical Upgrade questions)
Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 Advanced Configurations (AutoConfig, Fusion Middleware integration, RAC, DMZs, load-balancers, etc). NB: I will be hosting a Q&A table for this topic.
Managing and Maintaining the E-Business Suite (Sysadmin questions)
Oracle Business Intelligence Publisher for Oracle Applications
Oracle E-Business Suite and Fusion Middleware Live
Our hardworking Fusion Middleware team is highlighting some of their most-popular content from the EBS Best Practice Center at OpenWorld.
The following sessions give you an opportunity to get some hands-on experience with the E-Business Suite and Oracle Fusion Middleware. These sessions were a hit at the OAUG Collaborate conference earlier in Denver, with over 575 customers registered to try these technologies out themselves. If you’re interested in getting a closer look, I’d strongly recommend you make a reservation for these sessions in advance.

“Focus On…” Session Roadmaps
The OpenWorld session catalog gets bigger every year, and it can be hard to narrow down the sessions that might be useful to you. The following two “Focus On…” session roadmaps might help:
Steven leads OCI Multicloud Landing Zones. He is a product manager and solution architect with diverse experience as an Enterprise Architect, Database/Integration Architect and CRM Programme Lead across financial, healthcare and sport industries. He was a Global Cloud Solution Architect in Microsoft before joining Oracle, focusing on digital innovation.
