Oracle Database Directions [SOL3644]
Andy Mendelsohn’s fingerprint has marked every Oracle Database release since version 4. Find out why he believes Oracle Database 23ai may be the most important Oracle Database release ever. Of course, the new name is a big clue as humankind begins its AI journey, but there’s even more to 23ai than just AI. Join Andy as he showcases the most exciting database innovations you’ve seen in decades, and take a peek into what’s coming next, such as Autonomous Database advancements and a growing list of multicloud partnerships. |
Build Global-Scale Applications Using Globally Distributed Autonomous Databases [LRN1183] Data and transaction volume in enterprises is exploding, and applications are often required to be available 24/7 and comply with data sovereignty regulations. As a result, enterprise applications are adopting design patterns like the distributed databases used by internet-scale applications. Hear how customers are building global-scale applications that can scale to millions of transactions per second with petabytes of data, eliminate downtime, and comply with data sovereignty regulations. Discover how Oracle Globally Distributed Autonomous Database achieves all of this seamlessly while rendering strong data consistency, the full power of SQL, and support for structured and unstructured data and generative AI. |
| 11:45 am to 12:30 pm |
Accelerate Your Applications with True Cache [LRN1192] Many applications try to improve performance by adding a caching tier in front of a database. Unfortunately, these caches are neither automatic nor transparent. Applications must load the data in the cache and update it when the source data changes. This burdens the app developer and makes it nearly impossible to maintain data inconsistency. In this session, we’ll explain how Oracle True Cache, an in-memory SQL and object cache, addresses the shortcomings of conventional caches. True Cache does this by automatically caching frequently used data and maintaining consistency as the source data in the backend database changes. This simplifies the app and ensures that you don’t get wrong data. |
