Abstracts

The SQL* Family – Exploring SQL*Plus SQL Developer and SQLcl Best Practices for Developers and DBAs

This session will explore best practices for using the SQL* family of tools which includes 3 main utilities: The SQL*Plus command-line interface, the SQL Developer GUI IDE and the latest Oracle’s SQLcl Java-based command line interface. Participants will gain significant knowledge regarding how they can use those three tools in order to both administer and develop either cloud or on-premise databases. This session will also include real life examples and live demonstrations on using some very handy commands and features for all three tools while leveraging and enriching your day-to-day productivity and accomplishing your database development and administration tasks much easier and faster.

How Autonomous is the Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse?

With its Autonomous Data Warehouse Cloud (ADW), Oracle promises a self-configuring, fast, secure, and scalable platform for data warehouses. The installation takes place with few mouse clicks, and a much easier development and operation of a data warehouse is assured. Things like upgrades and patches, backups, performance optimization, scaling, indexing and partitioning, materialized views, optimizer statistics, and other “trivia” are no longer a concern of the customer. The marketing statements sound tempting – or scary, depending on the starting position. But what is really behind it? What happens when we run our data warehouses with ADW? Which tasks are simplified or superfluous? What effects does the self-configuring cloud solution have on database design, ETL processes, and BI queries? Based on various typical applications from the data warehouse area, we tested the ADW to know where in the future we still need, or can, influence ADWC and which tasks in the construction and operation of a data warehouse will be eliminated or simplified.

Simplified and Fast Fraud Detection using JSON and MATCH-RECOGNIZE

This session will demonstrate how using sql pattern matching techniques you can speed up searching for fraudulent events within a dataset compared to using other programming languages. As part of the presentation live demos will be used to review a series of uses cases and provide conceptual simplified SQL to solve these business requirements. These examples are taken from real-life requirements from customers in the financial services, retail, life sciences and telecommunications industries, although the scenarios are also applicable across many other industries. A simple four step framework will be used to construct pattern matching queries. A live demonstration will show how easy it is to write and amend SQL-based pattern

Exploring Best Practices for Protecting Sensitive Data on Cloud & On-Premise Databases

Today, Organizations are required to protect their sensitive data due to regulations such as GDPR, PCI and others, and to prevent sensitive data leakage to unauthorized personnel. Oracle Data Redaction enables you to redact sensitive data returned from queries issued by applications. This session will explore best practices for implementing various sensitive data redaction methods including full, partial, regular expressions and random redaction. Participants will learn from real life examples how they should use Oracle Data Redaction and what are the pros and cons of implementing this solution. The session will also include a live demos and will present various scripts and best practices for implementing Data Redaction to mask your sensitive data either in cloud or on-premise databases. Objectives: 1) Learn the essentials of dynamic vs. static data masking 2) Learn when and how to use Oracle Data Redaction 3) Learn the pros and cons of implementing Oracle data redaction 4) Learn how to implement various data redaction methods including full, partial, regular expressions and random redaction

Latest news about building and supporting web applications with Oracle Application Express (APEX) 18.2.

This talk will dive into the coolest of the new features that has been implemented in version 18.1 and 18.2 of Application Express (APEX). It will further touch on some of the latest trends within that technology space, such as PWA (progressive web apps), Running APEX in the Oracle Cloud, and running APEX for free – using the latest version of the Oracle XE database (18).

If you want to stay in touch with the latest in developing rapid, scalable, responsive and user-friendly applications – this is the place to be.

Identification of Performance Problems Without the Diagnostic Pack

Diagnostic Pack, which is an option available for the Enterprise Edition of Oracle Database only, gives access to a number of dynamic performance views and to the Automatic Workload Repository (AWR). Both are very useful for the identification of performance problems. On the one hand, dynamic performance views are mainly used for the analysis of performance problems while they are occurring. On the other hand, AWR is aimed at the analysis of performance problems that occurred in the past. The aim of this presentation is to describe how to perform analyses similar to those that can be carried out with the tools provided by the Diagnostic Pack even if you don’t have it.

Patterns and Use Cases for Self-Describing, Reusable Polymorphic Table Functions

Development teams are actively looking for new, agile, and efficient ways to expand the breadth, depth, and sophistication of their data analysis. This session explores common patterns and use cases for polymorphic tables, which a new, agile analytical framework designed to support the new types of fast-moving data discovery and big data analytics that are a key part of modern data warehousing. Come and explore how developers can use this agile framework to create efficient, scalable, self-describing, user-defined analytics functions that can greatly simplify data discovery and analysis of big data for report writers, application developers, data analysts, and data scientists.

Nordea going 12.2 Multi-Tenancy – Pitfalls and promises

In order to harvest promised on lower foot-prints on Multi-Tenancy, Nordea is on the way to use this feature from 12.2 and onwards. We have however found a few areas where a some pieces in the puzzle are still missing. Thus this session.

Database and APEX development with version control and automated build

As a developer building applications with Java/ADF and PLSQL/APEX, I felt that my database and APEX development was missing something in version control and automated build. This presentation shows how to use versioned database development and APEX with Flyway and automated build with Jenkins

In most organizations I have worked with, database and APEX development happens straight in some development database. This gives you some manual work packaging your application with the consequent certainty that something will be done wrong eventually.

This presentation shows how I use Flyway (https://flywaydb.org/) for incremental, version controlled database development so I can always build a database in any version, and I know which version runs on any environment. I use Oracle, but Flyway works with more than a dozen other databases.

I also show my workflow for making sure my APEX development is version controlled in my Git repository, and how to use Jenkins to build APEX applications directly from my Git repository together with the right version of the database.
