My OOW15 Trip Is Complete

I’m leaving Open World 2015 a day early. I managed to pack in an awful lot of activity into the three days I was here and I met up with some very nice people. I expect that my OOW experience was similar to many others. There was so much to do and not enough time. But I’m happy to be going home as well.

I spent most of my Monday attending sessions and learning about the exciting new changes coming out in Oracle 12cR2 (due to be released in 2016).There was a lot of talk about cloud, Cloud and more CLOUD, which is no surprise. “On-Prem” is now a new word I learned this week. I blogged about 12.2’s new Sharding capabilities, which I think will be a big deal down the road. The ability to add sharding to the world’s #1 database will only make the engine more competitive. There are a number of new RAC features coming as well. Some of these made my head spin but I’m sure I’ll make sense of it sooner or later. One of the sessions I attended today even discussed some new Data Guard features.

I never once visited any vendor booth on the exhibition floor, which was a first for me. I never saw any vendors that I really wanted to talk to and part of it is because I was so busy doing other things. In the Exhibition Hall, I did spend some time on the Demo Grounds. I like these because, as I tweeted out, this gives me a chance to ask pointed questions out a specific feature. Most people like to use the Demo Grounds to get a little demo of that feature. But typically for me, I’ve already seen the feature or been exposed to it, but I like to learn just a bit more about that feature and the expert is right there just waiting for me to ask.

Its always good to put a face with the name. And there were some people I wanted to meet up with but our collective schedules didn’t quite allow it. I was invited to a meetup event where I was able to interact with people that I know from the OTN or MOSC communities. All the people there I knew from these forums over the years but had never had a face to face discussion with so it was nice to talk them in person. The collection of people in the room spanned a number of countries all over the world and their expertise covered many different areas of the forums, so we had quite the diverse group.

I wanted to get to more of the Oak Table World events, but I only got to one: Christian Antognini’s discussion about Adaptive Dynamic Sampling. Next time I’ll try to get a few more of these as I’m sure all of them are excellent.

And then there are all of the things that I did not do. Oh well..maybe next time! I’m not sure if I’ll make it back for OOW16, but if not, then OOW17 for sure.
